This was a great trip from start to finish! We were picked up on time and swiftly transported to the boat. We had a good view from the top deck! The drinks flowed freely and the snacks were good.The captain was just awesome, finding lots of wildlife for us to see and getting an ideal spot for those sunset shots!Highly recommend!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing Zambezi River CruiseFantastic trip with Wild Horizons. Great food, beautiful scenery and a really relaxing way to see the Zambezi. The absolute highlight was watching a herd of elephants swim across the river — an incredible experience we’ll never forget.Highly recommended

WOW !! What an experience !! Be warned about the climb down at the start and the climb up at the end , can be tough. But it is soooooo worth it. Our captain was fantastic and did not take any slackers , you have to follow instructions but that gets you through. Would we do this again ? Oh YES !!!

Angel, my guide for the afternoon visiting the Victoria Falls National park was a delight to talk to and made the walk along the different view points in the National park very interesting. She didn’t rush me from view point to view point, she gave me time to take it all in, which I was grateful for. Also she was knowledgeable and very friendly. It was a lovely afternoon. I would give Angel a 5 star review, for sure. Then you Angel 🙏

Excellent day out. The guides and driver were very good. The afternoon boat trip was the highlight. Long day but well worth it

I did the 3pm tour with Trevor and spent 3 hours experiencing Victoria Falls at its best. Trevor was friendly, engaging and informative during the 4km journey taking in the many views of all the falls and rainbows, and even met a few of the local wildlife residents, too!

Wonderful excursion! Left on time. Lots to drink and the food was excellent! The staff was friendly and attentive. Beautiful sunset. We only wish it left a bit sooner so that there was more daylight. Once it got dark, there was nothing to see. Still, a wonderful night on the river.

One will be pick up from hotel, help with crossing the borders, experienced guides and great time. We stayed in Zimbabwe and had been picked up from the hotel. The taxi drivers does not cross the border but they are wonderfly organised and helpful with customs. So, from Zimbabwe, over Zambia to Botswana, this people knows what they are doing. Also, the boat sail and lunch were amazing.

An unforgettable experience on the Zambezi River with a team of 10!I went rafting on the Zambezi River last August 26th with my family (my partner, my two children) and two friends. Without a doubt, one of the best decisions of the trip. Visiting Victoria Falls and not doing this descent should be unforgivable.We want to send a huge hug to our guide, James (I think that's how it's spelled, you will easily identify him by a small scar he has on his face). He made us have an absolutely unforgettable day. He has a technical control of the raft and the river that is simply unique, which conveys total safety at all times.The rest of the guide team and the support staff also demonstrated an extraordinary technical level. In fact, I would say that the only real requirement to enjoy this activity is to have a minimum level of physical fitness to walk the trails down to the river course and the climb back up. A detail worth noting: they had a raft with a platform and large oars so that those who did not want to row (or preferred not to exert themselves as much) could enjoy the trip without any problem.In addition, the whitewater safety kayakers who accompanied us guaranteed an impeccable level of protection at all times.Great professionalism and unparalleled personal treatment. Highly recommended!James, thank you so much for everything! See you soon.

Amazing experience. We were collected on time by Thuba our guide. He was kind, wark and professional. Additionally Thuba was knowledgeable and approachable. We were in a small group and all got equal attention and support from him. Very friendly and relaxed atmosphere. On the Zambian side we were guided by Mike who equally brilliant.Admission fees are reasonable and matched up with the services we got.

Once we were ready to go we had Eric the pilot and only me and my friend so was comfortable and was amazing, the flight was great and saw elephants and the falls from every angle. This is a must see from the air . Got amazing video but little disappointed as the end of flight photos not on it. But did not ruin the trip or experience .

This was a great evening. The bus collecting lots did take a while but was worth it in the end. We arrived and was quickly shown upstairs to a great relaxing comfortable chair area. With a welcome drink. Very nice.Then we choose our meal of choice, from the 4 courses. Plus asked what drink we had, I did not realise but the one I booked came with complimentary drinks. Wow. They did not stop flowing, with a wide choice. I can recommend the falls gin, and African pinotage.We sailed towards the falls, then around a very latge Iland in the middle of the Zambezi. Stunning. One side was zambi, the other Zimbabwe. Truly stunning, we spotted lots of Rhino, apparently a Croc (I am sure it was log) and other wildlife.The sunset was awesome, sat back enjoy a drink with such a gorgeous sunset. Although lots of people on the boat it did not appear busy or rushed. Just brilliant.After sunset we were asked to move downstairs to the dinning area, still outside, and had the most wonderful dinner. Still drinks flowing.We had the best/most relaxing time for our last night in this amazing country. A brilliant way to end that part of our holiday. I can not recommend this enough. I hope you all enjoy it as much as me and my wife did.

Phenomenal experience. The pilot was very professional. Some incredible views of Victoria Falls. I would definitely do it again

It was fun, no rush and very insightful. Our guide had lots of experience. Well spoken English. Took pics for us. And gave us great advice. Also kept us safe because it was very slippery. Highly recommend We stopped at all view points and the big tree. It was great!

The sunset dinner cruise was much more than we hoped for. The drinks and food were very, very good and we saw more wildlife than expected including hippos, crocodiles, storks, and even an elephant. It was a wonderful evening.

We were in a group of 2 families and were welcomed by Kudzie who had to juggle the itineraries of both groups. We appreciated his all round traits as he also had to be a wildlife guide and we contacted him frequently on whatsap and got restaurant recommendations and supermarket stops from him.
