Based at Ilala Lodge on 5 Jun 2023
"A relaxed cruise with well informed staff.
The scale of the river can only be fully appreciated by boat.
The sunset cruise provided spectacular vistas across the water, accompanied by ample snacks and drinks.
Good sightings of hippos." Read more about this whole safari

"These boats were smaller than some of the others and had more character. The service and refreshments were excellent too.
We saw many Hippos and a few crocs before a glorious sunset." Read more about this whole safari

Based at Victoria Falls Safari Lodge on 8 Sep 2022
"The river cruise was great fun, the captain was very informative and was very good at spotting birds and animals which meant we got to saw lots and he was able to get close enough that we could capture good photos.
We were supplied with drinks and nibbles. Watching the sun set on the water was fantastic.
We would definitely recommend." Read more about this whole safari

"This was a pleasant saunter on the river around Long Island on the Zambezi River.
It was a nice boat, with a drinks waiter and a captain who pointed out all the wildlife spottings. It was our first activity having only arrived at the hotel an hour or so before it set off - but definitely got us in the holiday mood." Read more about this whole safari
