Zambezi River Holidays

The Zambezi is Africa's fourth longest river: from its source in Zambia to its mouth in Mozambique, it crosses varied and often spectacular landscapes, including the thundering Victoria Falls. A stay on the Zambezi River offers magical moments at every turn: from fiery sunsets that paint the sky amber to honking hippos lurking in the water. But the real highlight has to be Victoria Falls, one of David Livingstone’s most famous discoveries and a worthy inclusion in the list of Seven Natural Wonders of the World. The falls are most impressive during the rainy season, which runs from February to July, but if your trip falls during the dry season, fear not. This is the ultimate time to visit for adrenaline junkies, with options for bungee jumping and rafting excursions. Between peaceful sunset cruises and thrills at Victoria Falls, the Zambezi has a thousand surprises in store.
