What to expect

Watch the sun slip below the horizon on a 2-hour cruise of the Zambezi river. Enjoy cocktails and hors d’oeuvres on deck as Zimbabwe’s diverse animals flock to the water's edge. See flocks of birds as they swoop and glide across the sky, soak up the last rays of African sunshine and slow down to the gentle pace of life on the Zambezi. As you cruise on the upper Zambezi River, see the mist rising up from the magical Victoria Falls. The Zambezi River is the fourth-longest river in Africa, the longest east-flowing river in Africa and the largest flowing into the Indian Ocean from Africa. The 2,574-kilometre-long river (1,599 mi) arises in Zambia and flows through eastern Angola, along the north-eastern border of Namibia and the northern border of Botswana, then along the border between Zambia and Zimbabwe to Mozambique, where it crosses the country to empty into the Indian Ocean. The Zambezi's most noted feature is Victoria Falls. This park consists of 40km of the Zambezi River frontage and a spread of wildlife, rich inland mopane forest and savanna. Zambezi National Park is conjoined with Victoria Falls National Park and both parks cover an area of 56 000 hectares.
