Begin your journey in cosmopolitan Johannesburg. Next, take a flight to Kasane, Botswana and transfer to Namibia, where a three-night wildlife adventure aboard Zambezi Queen awaits, with incredible wildlife encounters throughout Chobe National Park. Immerse yourself in the beauty and power of Victoria Falls for three nights, then venture to Namibia’s most captivating landscapes. Begin in the NamibRand Nature Reserve, where endless red dunes and golden grasslands offer striking vistas by day and some of the world’s most spectacular stargazing by night. On the Skeleton Coast, windswept shores are dotted with remnants of stories past. In Etosha National Park, one of Africa’s top safari destinations, you can look for elephants, rhinos, lions and countless antelopes. In each destination, you will experience the deep cultural heritage and immersive wildlife encounters that make this journey unforgettable.

The ship has one Main Restaurant where guests enjoy a mix of international favorites and locally inspired dishes, often featuring regional ingredients and South African wines. Meals are served with panoramic river views, and vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and other dietary needs are happily accommodated.
This versatile space hosts a bar, dance floor, plenty of comfortable couches and big windows on three sides and is used for everything from the morning port talks, daytime reading and chatting to scenic cruising, afternoon tea and evening entertainment.
The top deck features an open-air Sun Deck complete with a plunge pool. Unlike a typical river cruise that travels from one port to the next, the Zambezi Queen was designed for an entirely different purpose—to facilitate optimal game viewing along the Chobe.
Onboard Performances and Musical Evenings
Throughout many voyages, the ship’s lounge transforms into a stage for local ensembles, jazz duos, and classical quartets
Select sailings have Music Hosts, conductors and musicians who guide you through historical context, lead onboard performances, and deepen your connection with the region’s musical heritage.
Live Regional Performances On Ship
Even on non-themed sailings, enjoy musical offerings like local performances, curated playlists, and connections to the musical stories of the rivers you traverse.
Take a cooling dip and feel refreshed while watching the passing scenery and wildlife upon the Chobe River.
