2.Zambezi Half-Day Rafting

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 84 reviews · 4 hours · from $140

From Livingstone or Victoria Falls, you’ll hike into Zambia’s Batoka Gorge, then paddle 10 to 13 class IV and V rapids with guides such as Andrew, Enock, Alex, and James. Allow extra time for the border if staying in Zimbabwe. Transfers, lunch, drinks, safety gear, and photos are included.

“We had so much fun! The rapids were awesome and Stan, Abraham and Sadias were incredible! They very obviously love what they do and their passion made it so much fun! All transfers across the border were included which was very helpful, make sure you have a double entry Zimbabwe VISA, if coming from that side. If want to experience the Zambezi river with a local Zambian company, cannot recommend this enough!”
