LUXURY ZAMBEZI RIVER CRUISES
Activity Overview
The Ra-Ikane I, II and III, offer a variety of cruises, including breakfast, lunch and sunset, as well as private charters. These boats represent the grace of a bygone era and honour the rich history of Victoria Falls and its explorers, adventurers and heroes.
Fashioned after David Livingstone’s exploration boat, the Ma-Robert, the Ra-Ikane boats are named after the instrumental guide, Lazarus Ra-Ikane, who accompanied and assisted Livingstone in his monumental discovery of the natural wonder, Victoria Falls.
Their monohull design enables the boats to navigate further up the Zambezi River and bring guests closer to the banks in the shallow water and closer to all the action! With lots of space on the flat deck and a maximum of 16 passengers, there is plenty room to make yourself comfortable.
The Experience
Everything you need to know in a nutshell.
Birdwatching Cruise
The Zambezi River is well-known for its legendary bird-watching safaris as the meandering river supports a lively riverine ecosystem along its banks, drawing in a wide variety of birds, and what better way to enjoy a birding safari, than serenely cruising along the Zambezi River on a birdwatching cruise.
Lunch Cruise
Find peace and solace in the midday heat cruising in comfortable luxury aboard the Ra-Ikane Lunch Cruise. Lunch is an abundant buffet of cold meats, fresh salads and other delicacies prepared by the chefs from the highly acclaimed Palm Restaurant. Drinks are bottomless and the service is impeccable aboard one of the most beautiful boats on the Zambezi River. An afternoon delight for the body, soul and mind.
Sunset Cruise
There is no better way to end a day of adventuring in Victoria Falls than by sitting back and relaxing with an ice-cold sun-downer while soaking up your surroundings. Our Sunset Cruise includes unlimited premium drinks, gourmet snacks and an abundance of wildlife and birdlife sightings. To top it all off, the cruise will end with a spectacular sunset over the Zambezi River.
