Relaxing Bird Cruise on Short Notice

5.00Booked with less than 12 hours notice! Received immediate confirmation, driver Simon arrived on time, and everything was ready for a morning boat safari on the Zambezi. Captains Musha and Bright were deliberate about seeking out colorful local bird species, including kingfishers and bee-eaters, my favorites. Also learned a lot about young crocodiles, which were surprisingly miniature. Finished the cruise with tea and snacks on an island overlooking the river. So satisfied to have invested this time on an unexpected layover!
Excellent Wildlife Viewing Opportunity

5.00Our pilots/guides, Rueben and Paul, obviously love sharing the river with guests. They are very knowledgeable about the birds and animals, as well as the ecology of the river overall. It felt like going out with friends who also happen to be experts in what we were seeing. Additionally, by being in a boat, somehow the creatures weren't skittish like they would be if we were on land. That afforded great viewing and photo opportunities.
