The River Song – sunset cruise on a luxury boat near the Victoria Falls

The River Song drifts along the Zambezi near Victoria Falls for 2 to 2.5 hours as the sky shifts from gold to deep pink. Cold hors d’oeuvres, cocktails, premium drinks, beers, juice, and soft drinks are served throughout. Watch the banks for hippos, crocodiles, elephants, and birds as the light fades. The staff keeps everything topped up, so you stay put, and the river does the rest. The boat departs at 3:30 PM during the wet season (1 May to 31 August) and at 4:00 PM during the dry season (1 September to 30 April).
