This experience will undoubtedly be one of your highlights on this tour, as there are not many better ways to reflect on how good life can be than to be floating along the mighty Zambezi River, watching the sun set over Africa, whilst sipping a refreshing drink.

This powerful cascade of water, which stretches a mile wide and flows thunderously into a 360 feet deep gorge, is known to the locals as Mosi-oa-Tunya meaning “The Smoke that Thunders”. A representative from Somalisa Camp will meet you on your return to the hotel and then he / she will transfer you to the Hwange National Park, a pleasant 3 ½ hour drive from the town of Victoria Falls. This intimate eco-friendly safari lodge with its elegant authentic contemporary Africa style décor can be found tucked away under the shade of an Acacia grove overlooking the golden savannah plains of Hwange.
