Experience the Majestic Zambezi River Cruise

Getting There

• Car

  If you're driving from Zambezi, Namibia, head south on the B8 highway towards Katima Mulilo. After approximately 70 kilometers, follow signs to the border crossing into Zimbabwe. Ensure you have the necessary documentation for border crossing. Once you cross into Zimbabwe, continue on the A8 highway towards Victoria Falls. The Zambezi River Cruise is located along the Zambezi River, near the town center. Look for signs directing you to the riverfront area where the cruises depart.

• Public Transportation

  Take a public bus from Zambezi to Katima Mulilo. Buses run frequently and the journey takes about 1.5 hours. From Katima Mulilo, you’ll need to take a taxi to the border crossing into Zimbabwe. After crossing the border, catch another bus heading to Victoria Falls. Once in Victoria Falls, ask the driver to drop you off at the main tourist area by the Zambezi River where the cruises are located. Alternatively, you can negotiate with a local taxi to take you directly to the riverfront.

• Taxi

  For a more direct route, you can hire a taxi from Zambezi to Victoria Falls. This will be more expensive, costing around $100-$150 depending on the negotiation. Ensure the driver knows your destination is the Zambezi River Cruise departure point. The journey will take approximately 2 to 2.5 hours, depending on traffic and border crossing time.

• Walking

  If you are staying close to the riverfront area in Victoria Falls, you can walk to the Zambezi River Cruise departure point. Look for signs indicating the direction to the river and follow the pathways leading to the waterfront.
