Wild Zambezi introduces you to the magic wilderness and wildlife of Africa's Zambezi River. Here is a world of nature where the pace is slow, the sun is warm, the sky is huge and the people are friendly............... Stand in the thundering spray of the Victoria Falls; pump adrenalin in the white-water of the Batoka Gorges; witness huge herds of elephant and buffalo drinking at the water pans in Hwange National Park; soak up a crimson sunset from the deck of your cruiseboat on Lake Kariba; catch (and release) a magnificent Zambezi tigerfish; canoe silently downstream past crocodiles, hippos and herons to Mana Pools; walk with a guide where elephants roam, and, if you are lucky, witness the chase of a lion or wild dog kill. Take the best photographs of your life….......... Wild Zambezi will help you explore this wilderness paradise.
