Itinerary

The Ship & Other Accommodations

Your ship is designed specifically for wildlife viewing.  An intimate 28-passenger river cruise ship made her debut in one of the world’s most captivating places, Africa’s legendary Chobe River. As she drifts along the river, animals perceive no threat, affording you with once-in-a-lifetime up-close game experiences. 

 

Additionally, to ensure no harm to the environment, the eco-friendly Zambezi Queen uses a water jet propulsion system, fuel-efficient and low-emission generators, and a solar heating system. 

 

An enclosed, air-conditioned dining room, lounge and bar grace the top deck, as well as an open-air Sun Deck complete with plunge pool. Suites feature private balconies where you can enjoy unobstructed views of the river and African landscape. 

 

Throughout the day, you'll be treated to complimentary South African wines, beer, local spirits, soft drinks and bottled water. And on one special night, enjoy an African-themed dinner with traditional dishes and entertainment.

 

You'll experience:

  • A beautiful and intimate ship, with a focus on sustainability

  • An open-air pool deck for 360-degree wildlife watching

  • Enclosed air-conditioned dining room, lounge, and bar
