Canoa dell'Alto Zambesi
Descrizione
Ciò che distingue davvero questo safari in canoa è il modo in cui ti porta nel cuore della natura selvaggia dell'Africa non solo per guardarlo, ma per viverlo dall'acqua stessa. A differenza dei tipici tour della fauna selvatica in cui gli animali vengono osservati da un veicolo o una barca, questa esperienza ti colloca a livello del fiume in canoa, scivolando silenziosamente attraverso i canali dell'Alto Zambesi sopra Victoria Falls. Questa modalità di viaggio tranquilla ti consente di incontrare elefanti che bevono sul bordo dell'acqua, ippopotami che emergono nelle vicinanze, coccodrilli che si crogiolano sulle rive e un'incredibile varietà di uccelli, il tutto con un senso di intimità e immersione che le barche più grandi o le jeep da safari semplicemente non possono eguagliare. Molti viaggiatori descrivono l’esperienza come un “viaggio unico nella vita”, notando come il ritmo lento e tranquillo permetta loro di assorbire i ritmi della natura, osservare la fauna selvatica in pacifica convivenza e godersi i pasti lungo il fiume momenti spesso descritti come momenti salienti del loro intero viaggio alle Cascate Vittoria. È una vera esperienza di safari africano in canoa.

7 of us had a great time rafting on the Upper Zambezi with Prince & his team. The journey to "launch" site is quite long & bumpy but the whole trip was amazing. We had breakfast by the river first then a gentle meander for about 2.5 hours - so peaceful and a fun way to see both Zimbabwe and Zambia. Lunch awaited us at the docking point - very enjoyable. I'd recommend this trip.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review and for choosing Victoria Falls Canoeing Company for your Upper Zambezi adventure. It was truly a pleasure hosting you and your group. We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the peaceful canoeing experience, the scenery along both the Zimbabwean and Zambian sides of the river, as well as the breakfast and lunch served during the trip. The Upper Zambezi really is a special place to relax, connect with nature, and take in the beauty of the river at a gentle pace. We also appreciate your understanding regarding the journey to the launch site the road can indeed be part of the adventure, but we’re happy to know the experience made it worthwhile. From Prince and the entire team, thank you once again for your kind recommendation. We hope to welcome you back to Victoria Falls again for another unforgettable experience on the Zambezi River.
This was the best activity I did while in vic falls. There was just 4 off us in group plus 2 guides and so it felt like private tour and it was a lovely group of people. We started off with a bumpy drive through Zambezi national park to upper section off river. Then a light breakfast snack and then onto the serious business of safety dos and dont's and how to steer the canoes. The trip was just wonderful. It was so peaceful out there as it was just us the hippos and the birds. We had s few mini Rapids which were fun. You will certainly get wet. The bird life was beautiful. The trip ended with a lovely lunch that our driver had ready for us on the river Bank. Guides zenzele and prince were pleasant and professional with a great sense of humor. Highly recommend this trip.
We arrived in Zimbabwe from the United States, and this canoe trip became our very first night in Africa an introduction we will never forget. What we expected to be a simple transfer to our campsite quickly turned into something far more magical. Along the way, we enjoyed an incredible game drive, spotting a variety of wildlife that made us feel like the adventure had already begun before we even reached camp. When we arrived, the campsite took our breath away. It was even more beautiful than we had imagined, with stunning views stretching across the landscape. As the evening settled in, we gathered around a glowing campfire and enjoyed a wonderfully prepared dinner. The meal was simple yet absolutely delicious, and the setting made it unforgettable. Sitting around the fire with our guides, sharing stories under the African sky, felt truly special.
After coming across a rather concerning review online, I must admit I was initially a bit hesitant about booking our canoe trip. Naturally, you want everything to go smoothly when planning an experience from all the way in Australia — especially when it’s something you’ve been looking forward to as part of your African adventure. However, after reading through the many other positive reviews and seeing how highly rated the experience was overall, I realized that one review doesn’t always reflect the true standards of an operation. We decided to take a leap of faith and I’m so glad we did. From the moment we arrived, everything was handled professionally and seamlessly. The canoeing experience itself was absolutely incredible and easily one of the highlights of our entire trip to Africa. The scenery, the calmness of the river, and the knowledgeable guides made it both relaxing and memorable. It turned out to be one of those once-in-a-lifetime moments that you talk about long after your trip is over. We’re truly glad we didn’t let one review deter us from what became such a fantastic experience.
We had an exceptional experience with Lloyd on the Zambezi River. We were fortunate to spot hippos and truly appreciated seeing the river and surrounding wildlife from a unique and refreshing perspective. As active individuals, we found the canoeing experience quite manageable, even with a strong headwind on the day. It’s a rewarding adventure—just be sure you’re ready for the
