A houseboat safari on the Zambezi River is the ideal safari option for keen birders, avid fisherman, and those looking for an unusual safari experience. Floating down a river surrounded by the rawness of one of the world’s most revered safari destinations, should be on everyone’s adventure list. A houseboat experience opens a world of opportunity to spot game while on the water, and observe wildlife coming to you instead of the other way around.
While on the water, fall asleep to the sound of hippos honking, and wake up to the call of the African fish eagle. Everyday you’ll rise and sleep to a waterfront view, while cocooning in the lap of luxury in a beautifully appointed cabin. On board a Botswana houseboat there’s usually a viewing deck area, bar and restaurant, and relaxation coves. Houseboat safaris provide abundant opportunity for families, honeymooners, and small groups to spend quality time together. Fishermen can delight in knowing that the waters are teeming with bass and carp, which means there’s really no excuse to not catch anything!
