What information do you need to book Discover Scuba Diving?
Booking Discover Scuba Diving with the Zambian Outdoor Adventure Company is quickest when the first message includes five details. First, the number of people diving. Second, each diver's age, since Discover Scuba Diving is open from age 10 and Try Scuba from age 6. Third, the preferred date or a few possible dates.
Fourth, the preferred venue: Millennium Village, GOGO Fitness, the Radisson Blu Hotel or a private pool at home. Finally, any medical conditions, because some conditions need a doctor's approval before diving. For example, a message such as "3 people, ages 12, 40 and 42, Saturday afternoon, GOGO Fitness, no medical conditions" gives the team everything needed to confirm a booking in one reply. The Zambian Outdoor Adventure Company replies on WhatsApp within 2 hours. Booking through the form on this page works the same way and also provides a free first-dive guide in PDF format.
How much does Discover Scuba Diving cost in Zambia?

Where can you book a Discover Scuba Diving session?
The Zambian Outdoor Adventure Company runs Discover Scuba Diving at three venues in Lusaka: Millennium Village, GOGO Fitness and the Radisson Blu Hotel. Customers with a private pool can also book a session at home, because the PADI-certified instructors bring all the scuba equipment to the pool. The session content, price and maximum group size of 4 people are the same at every venue.
Choosing a venue usually depends on where the divers live or work and on whether a group wants privacy. For example, a birthday group might prefer a home pool, while an individual adult might choose the most convenient hotel or fitness venue. Mention the preferred venue when booking, or ask the team for a recommendation. In practice, giving two or three possible dates and a first-choice venue in the same message makes confirming a session faster.
What happens after you book Discover Scuba Diving?
After a booking request, the Zambian Outdoor Adventure Company follows three steps. Step 1: the team replies on WhatsApp within 2 hours. Step 2: the team confirms the date, venue and price, and answers any questions about the session.
Step 3 is the dive itself. On the day, a PADI-certified instructor starts with a safety briefing on dry land, fits each diver's equipment and then leads the group into the water for the first breaths underwater. The full session takes 3–4 hours. Divers only need to bring swimwear and a towel. For example, a diver who books on a Monday and asks for Saturday at the Radisson Blu Hotel receives a reply the same day confirming availability. In practice, mentioning any medical condition at booking avoids delays on the day.
Can you book Discover Scuba Diving for children or a group?
Children and groups can book Discover Scuba Diving with the Zambian Outdoor Adventure Company. Children aged 10 and over can join Discover Scuba Diving, while children from age 6 can join Try Scuba. Every group has a maximum of 4 people, so larger parties are split into several groups.
Birthday parties often run at a family's own pool, with the instructors bringing the equipment. Schools and companies can book group sessions or a full day of Pond Scuba, with a quote on request. For example, a school with 12 pupils would be run as several small groups of up to four. Send the number of participants, their ages and the preferred dates, and the team replies within 2 hours.
