Sit back and relax as your guide gently poles your "Makoro" through these clear waters so that you can get up close and personal with some of the most exciting creatures on earth.
The complete your journey with the adrenaline junkies at Victoria Falls. Be insane for a day as you jump off bridges, boogie board head-first down the immense rapid runs of the Zambezi, sit tight in your micro-light aircraft above the raging Victoria Falls or simply take it easy on an upper Zambezi River cruise and watch the African bush go gently on by.
