About Your Trip

This much is known: Where there is water, there is life. But nowhere is there as much life as at the mighty Zambezi River. On this trip, you'll go to where the fish are to chase some absolutely iconic and aggressive species, including the famous African Tigerfish.

The Zambezi River trip is tailor-made for the avid fisherman. You'll enjoy the whole day on the river with an experienced guide and the prospect of having Tigerfish, Nembwe, Humpback and Three-spot or Redbreast Tilapia on the hook. Plus, you'll be able to enjoy a relaxing break at Zambezi Mubala Camp with an overnight stay and breakfast. Cook your own dinner on the fire, or enjoy the cosy evening get-togethers in the restaurant and bar, where angling stories are exchanged and the joy of another unique day is celebrated. Join the complimentary sundowner cruise, sit back, forget the hustle and bustle of town and move to the peaceful rhythm of nature.

There's also a lot to besides fishing. Relaxing days at the campsite or in tents in the shade of high trees, swimming in the pool, a jungle gym for children... Safaris in Chobe National Park, guided walks to the bird colonies, trips to Victoria Falls - everything is possible. You might consider an extra week from the outset. Book now to secure your spot at this once-in-a-lifetime location!
