Snacks and drinks are served while the sun sinks below the shimmering surface of the Zambezi. After sunset dinner is served on the vessel. The rich aroma of locally sourced, fresh ingredients wafts around diners as the dishes are plated. Time seems to stand still as the boat gently glides along to the sound of water lapping up against her sides. Far removed from the glare of city lights and noise, the moon and stars shine brightly in the sky and an atmosphere of mystery and romance envelopes the evening’s experience. The meal and selected drinks on board are included. After the cruise, you are transferred back to your hotel.
