Victoria Falls Sunset Cruise on the Zambezi River
Description
The Victoria Falls Sunset Cruise is one of the most iconic and relaxing experiences in the region. Set on the upper Zambezi River, just upstream from the world-famous Victoria Falls, this 2-hour cruise combines wildlife sightings, refreshments, and breathtaking views as the sun dips below the African horizon.
As you glide along the calm waters, you may encounter hippos, crocodiles, elephants, and a wide variety of birds. The real show begins at twilight when the Zambezi sky transforms into shades of gold, pink, and orange.
Choose from a classic, luxury, or family-friendly boat option – all include complimentary drinks and snacks, professional crew, and hotel transfers. Whether you’re a honeymooner, family, or group traveler, this is a must-do experience in Victoria Falls.
