We enjoyed a Game Drive in Livingstone Park before the Sunset Cruise. In addition to the being able to view the white rhino's we also saw several other species at close range in the park. During the Sunset Cruise, there were quite a few species of wildlife on the banks as well as in the water. I highly recommend "African Safari Experience" for your Zambia excursions, as everything from the booking to their delivery was seamless. Their driver's and guides were always prompt and always willing to share their knowledge with our group. Steve was always very prompt in responding to my inquiries and answering all of my many questions. He was able to fit in all of the activities we requested during our stay in Zambia.

From pick up from our Livingstone hotel, drive to the cruise boat was an easy drive. The sunset cruise was a pleasant time with good food and drinks.. and seeing the animals on the river was Overall an excellent experience
My experience was amazing! I had the best time ever, I saw hippo's, elephants and crocodiles. Everything was excellent and so memorable. Amazing time!!
Amazing sunset cruise and game experience!,the sunset was perfect 😍
Our family experienced an incredible day in Chobe and on the river. All of the logistics were flawlessly and professionally taken care of by Steve and his team- we simply had to be ready at our resort. Our transportation driver, Matthew, was kind and courteous and guided us seamlessly through the border crossing from Zambia to Botswana. Our safari guide, Kenny, was EXCEPTIONAL. He possesses top notch knowledge of the park, the animals and their behaviors, and the surrounding flora. We encountered a wide variety of amazing animals and felt particularly lucky to see some lions and cubs. The river cruise was peaceful and an interesting counter-perspective to what we had seen earlier that day on land. We would highly recommend Steve and his team at African Safari Experiences. 10/10
Amazing cruise, wonderfull sunset and 100% recomendable!! i went with my mom, the cocktails and the food were amazing too
Lovely end of day trip with food and drinks as the sun got ready to set. The Zambezi is awesome. After a day of safari, nothing like a relaxing boat trip/ You can sit and watch so many animals as they come out of their shaded areas to drink. We saw plenty of animals. Met some new friends. Got hosted beautifully by Steve and the African Safari Experience team. Definitely worth doing.
Nothing beats being on the mighty Zambezi, cold drink in hand, watching the amazing sunset. A lovely combo trip offering an opportunity to experience the amazing wildlife both from a vehicle and the river!
I had a fantastic time on these two trips organised by African Safari Experience. On the game drive I saw lots of animals such as elephants, giraffes, zebras and the magnificent white rhinos in Livingstone National Park . Then on the sunset cruise I sipped my wine on the luxurious boat whilst viewing hippos, crocodiles and even elephants crossing the river. The trip included substantial snacks and unlimited alcoholic drinks. The sunset on the Zambezi river was beautiful. I highly recommend this trip.
I recently went on a sunset cruise and game drive with African Safari Experience, and it was absolutely amazing! Everything about the experience was perfect. The staff were friendly and welcoming, making sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. The cruise was so relaxing, with breathtaking views of the sunset reflecting off the water. I learned so much about the birds around the Zambezi The game drive was just as exceptional . We got to see, elephants, impalas, buffalos, giraffes, Zebra and so many birds up close. Our guide Vinnie was very knowledgeable, sharing interesting facts about the wildlife and making sure we didn’t miss any special moments. I had so much fun would highly recommend this combo
I loved everything about the experience! We saw so many animals and learned so many interesting facts about them! The sunset cruise was gorgeous, and we got to see hippos and crocodiles! Such a great experience!
Activities were well organised. Tour guides were very professional and friendly at the same time. Definitely using African safaris again.
We went on an afternoon Sunset Cruise and it was all so well organized. Watched the beautiful sunset while also seeing hippos and crocodiles. Steve and his team were amazing!
Our group had a great afternoon on sunset cruise. We saw a lot of hippos and crocodiles while we ate good food and drinks.
On the 22nd of December, I went on the Taonga speedboat with 3 of my friends. We departed Taonga boat cruises at 10.00 in the morning, during the boat drive we saw lots of hippos, crocs and even some elephants. Everything was organized very well and I would recommend this activity if you are looking for a nice getaway on the river.
I absolutely loved the sunset cruise. It was a very relaxing way to end the day. We were fed a delicious meal, and Safari Steve and Connie were so kind and friendly. We got to see hippos, zebras, crocodiles, and buffalo while on the cruise! I also highly recommend the rhino safari. It was neat to be so close to an endangered species. Truly a once in a lifetime experience!!
The boat cruise was such a great experience. A quiet, restful way to end the day with a beautiful sunset to boot! Our host, Safari Steve, treated us well and even made sure to make a special stop for coffee before our game drive the next day. Overall, would definitely recommend. Worth every cent!
Loved the game drive in the park. The recent rain has made things green and the animals were all happily eating so we could get some great photos. The Zebras were my personal favourite. Very knowledgeable guide. The sunset cruise was fabulous. Beautifully atmospheric with brooding clouds. Watching elephants swim across the Zambezi was magical, especially the tiny baby who was completed submerged. We were all cheering him on! Delicious food and plentiful drinks on board. Thanks to Steve and team for organising it all. I can highly recommend this combo!!
It was a great family experience on the cruise with sundeck reserved for the family. All of us enjoyed the food and drinks of high quality, with a fantastic experience of seeing different animals and birds. Nature was at its best that day and the sunset was just fabulous. We captured many moments of our life that would be with us forever. Sanket Dharamshi and Family
From start to finish, our host Steve was awesome! The actual cruise was very beautiful. Steve made us feel super comfortable during the entire cruise. He made it fun to spot the wild life. And he very well informed regarding the flora and fauna of the area. I would recommend Steve and his team to anyone visiting the Livingstone area. We did three tours with him and felt though we were VIP's each and every time. And he is quite affordable as well.
I'd definitely recommend the Taonga Boat Cruise as an ideal way to take the 'seanic'route around Livingstone. Steve was incredibly accommodating and looked after us from start to finish, from organising our transport to making sure everyone had plenty of food and drinks. They made sure that we went to the places where we could spot the beautiful wildlife along the Zambezi, from Egyptian Geese to Hippos. Loved every minute of it and, having also done the other sunset cruises, I would definitely choose this one as the best. It was one of most memorable experiences of Zambia.
The sunset cruise was absolutely beautiful! The crew was incredibly courteous and helpful, and all the snacks/ drinks were also well planned. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Zambia.
