1. 5.0 Reliable Copperbelt Taxi (1 review)
   - Copperbelt Taxi Services
   Taxis & Shuttles
   When people fly in through Ndola airport, they need a reliable, professional driver/guide to take them around the Copperbelt towns and surrounding areas. This is cheaper than hiring a car. The driver is funny, experienced and knows his way around from airport transfer to hotels to business and social places. See more..
   
2. 4.5 Chimfunshi Wildlife Orphanage (48 reviews)
   - A Fantastic Stay
   Friday: 8:00 AM - 4:00 PM Nature & Wildlife Areas
   
   
   Chimfunshi Wildlife Orphanage Trust is one of the largest chimpanzee reserves in the world and is internationally recognized as such. Chimfunshi is home to 120 chimpanzees, most of them living in 4 large forested enclosures, and as close to their natural environment as possible. Chimfunshi started as a family-run wildlife orphanage in the north of Zambia, and today Chimfunshi is managed by a Board of Trustees to ensure the long-term sustainability of the Sanctuary. Chimfunshi was founded in 1983 when a game ranger brought a badly wounded infant chimpanzee to the cattle ranch of David and Sheila Siddle. The Siddle's nursed that chimp - named "Pal" - back to health, thereby establishing a tradition of care and respect that forms the legacy of the sanctuary. Once word of Pal's recovery spread, the Siddle's were inundated with orphaned chimpanzees. Sheila Siddle quoted "All I know is that I held a dying chimpanzee in my arms that day and it changed my life forever." Although many of the chimpanzees were confiscated from poachers who attempted to smuggle the infants into Zambia for sale as pets, an equally large number were rescued from dilapidated zoos and circuses from all over Africa, Asia, Europe and South America. With 120 chimpanzees, Chimfunshi is now one of the largest chimpanzee sanctuaries in the world. In 2002, an Education Centre was built to provide a facility to teach the youth of Zambia about ecology and wildlife conservation. Local and international students researching group behaviour and ethnic studies also use it. Chimfunshi Wildlife Orphanage operates entirely on donations and sponsorship, without the financial support provided by our valued Donors, volunteers and visitors, the sanctuary and its inhabitants could not survive. Join us for a day visit or overnight stay and be intrigued by humans' closest relative and learn about our similarities from our knowledgeable Keepers. See more..

   - My Trip To Lake Kashiba
   Spent More than 3 hours Bodies of Water
   
   
   Lake Kashiba is a beautiful natural Lake surrounded by trees and well shaped white stones. It has a breath taking scenery and a very quiet environment. When visiting the lake, make sure to cary everything you need e.g drinks, food, swimming costumes if you want to swim. A good camera, portable power banks. You also need to provide your own accommodation if you want to spend a night in the area and there’s an entrance fee of K10 per person which is affordable for anybody. Caution: If you do not know how to swim, please do not swim and stay afar from the waters because if you drown, your body will never be found as this is believed to be a spiritual lake with strange things happens there.

   Just outside of Ndola, this is a great experience to learn about history right here. The tour guide was terrific, very well informed, passionate and articulated the information wonderfully.

6. 3.5 Copperbelt Museum (21 reviews)
   - Museum visit
   Speciality Museums
   
   
   Small museum in downtown Ndola. Ground floor is devoted to the mining industry. Great if you’re into minerals and gemstones. Upstairs is a hotchpotch of exhibits: stuffed birds, wire toys, and ethnographical artefacts. The latter section is the most interesting with a bit of info on witchcraft, musical instruments, and various traditional ceremonies. Lady at the entrance sulked when she realized we are residents thus paying the lower admission fee. Do they get a cut of the proceeds? Anyway, worth 45 mins of your time when in Ndola, even if it’s inferior in every aspect to the regional museums of Choma and Livingstone. See more..
