Bushtracks River Safari

Set out on an exclusive river adventure with the Bushtracks Premium River Cruise, an intimate and luxurious journey along the upper Zambezi River. Aboard a custom-built, jet-propelled safari boat, guests are treated to a seamless and comfortable experience, perfectly designed for navigating the river’s intricate channels just 800 metres above the spectacular Victoria Falls. Unlike traditional river cruises, this experience ventures into secluded areas of the Zambezi, far from the usual river traffic, ensuring a peaceful and immersive escape into nature.

The cruise offers breathtaking views of the untouched landscape, where the river’s waters weave through lush islands and secret inlets, creating a haven for wildlife. This section of the Zambezi is home to an incredible array of animals, and guests can expect to see hippos wallowing in the shallows, crocodiles basking on the banks, and elephants gathering for a drink at the water’s edge. The birdlife in this region is equally remarkable, with sightings of African fish eagles, kingfishers, herons, and bee-eaters adding to the rich safari experience.

One of the highlights of the Bushtracks Premium River Cruise is its commitment to offering an exclusive and tranquil setting. With a limited number of guests on board, the experience is both personal and luxurious, allowing for uninterrupted appreciation of the river’s beauty. Whether seated in the open-air section or enjoying the comfort of shaded seating, passengers can fully relax while taking in the sights and sounds of the Zambezi.

As the boat glides effortlessly through the water, expert guides provide fascinating insights into the river’s ecology, wildlife, and history. They share stories about the local communities that have thrived along the Zambezi for generations and explain the importance of conservation efforts in this fragile ecosystem. Guests are also treated to a selection of premium beverages and gourmet canapés, carefully curated to complement the experience. Sip on a refreshing cocktail or a glass of fine wine as the golden hues of the African sunset reflect on the water, creating a truly magical atmosphere.

Whether seeking adventure, relaxation, or a deeper connection with nature, the Bushtracks Premium River Cruise offers a unique and unforgettable way to explore the Zambezi. This experience is ideal for travellers looking to enjoy the river’s tranquillity while indulging in exceptional hospitality, making it one of the most sought-after activities near Victoria Falls.
