Designed specifically for wildlife viewing, the intimate 28-passenger Zambezi Queen made her debut in one of the world’s most captivating places, Africa’s legendary Chobe River. As she drifts along the river, animals perceive no threat, affording you with once-in-a-lifetime up-close game experiences. Additionally, to ensure no harm to the environment, the eco-friendly Zambezi Queen uses a water jet propulsion system, fuel-efficient and low-emission generators, and a solar heating system. An enclosed, air-conditioned dining room, lounge and bar grace the top deck, as well as an open-air Sun Deck complete with plunge pool. Suites feature private balconies where you can enjoy unobstructed views of the river and African landscape. Throughout the day, be treated to complimentary South African wines, beer, local spirits, soft drinks and bottled water. And on one special night, enjoy an African-themed dinner with traditional dishes and entertainment.

Your lavish suite with an outside balcony is perfect for game-viewing and enjoying the scenery on the Chobe River.

A Sustainable Journey

Built with sustainability and community engagement in mind, the Zambezi Queen incorporates eco-conscious technologies and supports local economies through guided excursions and onboard cultural experiences.

Luxuriate and take a refreshing dip in the intimate plunge pool while marvelling at the incredible scenery before you – one of the best views on the entire ship!
