Question 1

What's the best time of year for whitewater rafting on the Zambezi?

Accepted Answer

The river runs in two main seasons: low/high water (roughly August–December) and high water half-stretch (January–July). Rapids and routes vary by season, so tell us your travel dates and we'll recommend the right package.

Question 2

Do package prices include national park fees?

Accepted Answer

Not always — most rafting, safari and accommodation packages list park fees, gratuities, and drinks separately as exclusions. Each package card above notes what's excluded, and we'll confirm exact totals when you enquire

Question 3

Is whitewater rafting safe? Do I need prior experience?

Accepted Answer

No experience is required. We maintain a 100% safety record, and our trip leaders each have 20+ years of guiding on the Zambezi plus international rafting experience. Full safety briefings and equipment are provided before every trip.

Question 4

What's typically included in the multi-day combo packages?

Accepted Answer

Combo packages generally include rafting and/or safari days, accommodation, meals during activities, sunset cruises, and all transfers around Victoria Falls. Drinks, dinners outside the itinerary, and national park fees are usually extra — see each package for details.

Question 5

Can you pick us up from Livingstone, Zambia?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We arrange cross-border pickups from Livingstone so you can join Victoria Falls activities and tours without extra hassle, at a low added cost.

Question 6

How do I book, and is a deposit required?

Accepted Answer

Submit the enquiry form above with your preferred package and dates. Our team will confirm availability and pricing, and share deposit and payment details to secure your booking

Question 7

Can packages be customized for our group?

Accepted Answer

Yes — we specialize in bespoke, tailor-made adventures rather than fixed mass-market tours. Let us know your group size, interests and timeframe, and we'll adjust a package or build a custom itinerary.

Question 8

Do I need travel or health insurance?

Accepted Answer

Travel and health insurance is not included in any package and is not arranged by us. We strongly recommend arranging cover before you travel, particularly for adventure activities like rafting, bungee jumping and the gorge swing

Question 9

What accommodation options do you offer?

Accepted Answer

We offer three tiers — Silver (mid-range), Gold (mid-range) and Platinum (high-end) — at partner lodges and hotels close to Victoria Falls, each bundled with breakfast, a guided Falls tour and a choice of activities.

Question 10

What should I bring for a rafting or safari day?

Accepted Answer

Light, quick-dry clothing, sun protection, a change of clothes for after rafting, and closed shoes for safari game drives are recommended. We'll send a full packing guide once your booking is confirmed.
