★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 303 reviews · 2 hours · from $69Our pick

Review of Victoria Falls’ 2-hour luxury Zambezi sunset cruise, with wildlife, drinks, canapés, deck advice, costs, and practical tips.

“Picked up from my hotel on time by Violin (yes I did check her name) she explained we would pick up others in the group and then drop us off at the ship. Paid the 10usd fee ahead of boarding and then got shown to my reserved seating. Nice drinks and food served during the trip. Ship was too big to get very close to the shore so maybe consider a smaller boat if you want to get as close as possible to any basking crops. staff on the boat were very friendly and attentive. timing was good to finish with sunset shots.”

I wrote the organisier and there was no response so I had to find someone to call them for me. Luckily they had places for 3:30pm yesterday so I could participate which was a nice experience but it didn’t surprise me that we didn’t see the cats, bc most pf the safari was with daylight and they endend it 30min early when it was actually dark and we…”
