Depart from the jetty in Livingstone and drift gently along the Zambezi River, just upstream from Victoria Falls. The riverbanks are alive with wildlife, especially in the late afternoon when elephants gather to drink and hippos surface in pods.
As the sun begins to set, the sky transforms into shades of orange, pink, and purple, creating one of the most beautiful sunset experiences in Africa. Your guide will share insights about the river ecosystem, wildlife behavior, and local culture.
