White Water Rafting

Open Map

Get to grips with the Zambezi River on this heart-racing, mind-blowing, eye-widening white-water rafting trip – a classic and brilliant experience!

What you'll do

This is your chance to conquer the thundering waters and burbling rapids of the impressive Zambezi River on an inflatable raft in the experience of a lifetime – and one to tell the grandkids about. Choose a full day of rafting to experience all 21 ferocious rapids (or 25 if in high water season) with a stop for lunch in between, or opt for the more gentle (!) half-day experience. The morning trip takes in rapids 1 – 10, ending with lunch and drinks, whilst the afternoon experience starts at rapid 11 and continues to 21, ending with drinks. And with the rapids aptly named things like ‘The Gnashing Jaws of Death’ and ‘Devil’s Toilet Bowl’, those drinks might just be needed…!

From $150 per person/per night
Duration
Full day – 8.5 hours. Half day – 5 hours

Notes
If the water level is too high, the river will be closed for rafting for safety reasons (this is usually around April/May but can last as long as July). High water season is from January to July; low water season is from mid-July to the end of January. There is a minimum age of 15 years for this activity, and a maximum weight of 140kg.
