The cruise is very well organized. From the minute you get on the boat until the end you are mesmerized by the tranquility and beauty along the river. The staff are very friendly and accommodating. The ranger, David, is very knowledgeable and kept us entertained. The food was delicious and incorporated the tastes of the two countries. The onboard band, the Zambezi string quartet, were fantastic to listen to and were very professional. We saw many hippos along the route, as well as a Fish Eagle and Marabou storks. The rainbow reflection in the falls was also a beautiful sight. I would definitely recommend this sunset dinner cruise!
This is a scam. They took our money and did not book with the tour company. No pick up or anything. Called the company. They confirmed we are not booked. We do have confirmation through TripAdvisor/prior to that we purchased this tour yet. No tour was purchased on our behalf through this tour operator. Horrible experience. Worst part of my entire trip. Do not book this tour through this tour operator.
We booked this tour though Viator, they did not communicate with the boat company that we were on the tour. So we were left behind. The boat company had no record of us supposed to be on the tour. The charge went through to pay for this tour a month ago and now we have no tour and the money is spent. We are left with the night of nothing to do and no tour. I would suggest you do not book through Viator that you booked through your hotel to make sure you get on the boat and you’re not left paying the money for something you didn’t get to do.
Great way to see the animals and the sunset. Very comfortable boat and excellent guide David . Lovely snacks and unlimited selected drinks . We saw hippos , swimming elephants , crocodiles , giraffe and buffalo along with a beautiful sunset . I don’t know if we were fortunate but our cruise was not crowded so it felt a very elevated experience
The Lady Livinstone is the second or third largest cruise boat on the Zambian side of the Zambezi river. The largest is the one at Radisson Blu Hotel and I think the second largest should be the African Queen. That said you get good food on the Lady Livingstone and the route extends further up the Zambezi River than the other boats. Sadly the PA system on the boat wasn't used and so it was hard to hear the tour guide explaining details about the Zambezi River. I also got the feeling that the waiters were less than what was required so the wait time for service was longer than on other cruises.
Hi Edwin It sounds like you had a mixed experience on the Lady Livingstone Sunset Cruise. It's great to hear that you enjoyed the food and appreciated the extended route along the Zambezi River. However, I understand your disappointment with the lack of use of the PA system, which made it difficult to fully engage with the tour guide's explanations. Additionally, longer wait times for service can certainly impact the overall enjoyment of the cruise. Your feedback about the need for better communication and service is valuable and I hope the cruise operators take it into consideration for future improvements. Thank you for sharing your thoughts!
A bigger review is on the sunset cruise 🚢 in trip advisor. But we loved 🥰 it. Everyone goes upstairs be tbh the wildlife views are best from the docking level. Take a jacket as it can be breezy.
