Top Zambia On the Water

Two water experiences, one day: a swim in the natural spray pools below Victoria Falls, followed by white water rafting on the Zambezi. No other Livingstone experience combines both. You raft to the base of the falls, then scramble through rocks with your guide to reach the swim spot. Standing inside the spray and mist, with water falling from 100 metres above, is nothing like viewing the falls from the path. The Boiling Pot whirlpool sits nearby, and guides share the gorge's geology and history throughout. Next comes white water rafting through Batoka Gorge, past named rapids including Morning Glory and the Devil's Toilet Bowl. Your captain and safety kayaker stay with you the entire way. The full experience covers 12km of river over 5 hours.
