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. WE OFFER INDEPENDENT KNOWLEDGE AND LOCAL ADVICE ON HOW TO GET THERE, WHERE TO STAY, WHAT TO DO AND HOW TO KEEP SAFE. Putting a trip together?
