Do you think that cruise holidays are outdated? Think again.

A holiday on Zambezi Queen is not your usual river cruise. The luxurious 5-star houseboat was designed as an unconventional way of exploring the Chobe National Park. As the boat slowly drifts along the river, you will enjoy the front-row seat at the spectacle of game-watching. From your private balcony, you can spot animals paddling in the water or coming to the riverbank to drink.

The suites are modern and elegant, equipped with air conditioning, fans, and other conveniences necessary for a perfect journey. The top deck provides a pleasant rest after the daily adventures: sunbeds, a pool, and a bar treating you to complimentary wine, beer, and soft drinks all day. Even the dining room offers unobstructed views of the river so you can enjoy a scenic sunset to complement your gourmet diner.

Every day, you can venture out on a small motorboat to get a closer look at the game. The list of animals that can be spotted on the Chobe River is awe-inspiring: elephants, zebras, lions, crocodiles, buffalo, hippos, and more. Zambezi Queen also offers birding and fishing safaris with expert guides.

Thanks to the abundance of game, the Chobe River is a real wildlife photography hotspot. The houseboat team has got you sorted for a great photo safari with a custom-made boat designed especially for photographers. It’s equipped with swivel chairs for 360-degree views and camera mounts for stability. They really thought about everything, didn’t they?
