Zambezi Truth, Victoria Falls
Join us for a unique voyage aboard a bohemian styled dhow and experience the humble serenity of the magnificent Zambezi River before it ultimately cascades into the mighty Victoria Falls. Sail gently upstream, without the noise of loud motors or bustling crowds, where only the lapping water and gentle swooshing of the sail punctuates the ambiance as guests take in the exquisite natural beauty of their surroundings from this unique vantage.
Your Experience
As the only traditional sail boats in Victoria Falls, the two dhows, Zambezi Tribe and Zambezi Origin, stand out beautifully and romantically on the Zambezi River with their striking silhouettes, providing the ultimate sense of personalised adventure. Experience authentic barefoot luxury and feel in-tune with nature, floating along the river, feeling the boat gently rocking you, taking in the sights and sounds around you, literally taking off your shoes to lounge luxuriously on large light blue canvas cushions, feeling freedom and simplicity without compromising on comfort. As a sail-boat, no noisy engines interfere with your experience; the boats are sustainable and eco-friendly, which is at the heart of Hideaways’ ethos of touching the earth lightly. The soft natural materials and light colours of the dhows blend in beautifully with the environment. By respecting the past and using traditional African innovation we are providing a truly unique memory of a beautiful journey along one of Africa’s most legendary rivers. The only one of its kind.
Location
The Zambezi flows through six countries and along its course is characterised by floodplains, rapids, gorges, and a gentle steady flow. The Zambezi is the lifeblood of Victoria Falls town, a travel hub for Zimbabwe, Zambia and Botswana. The small town is home to the massive waterfall that is a World Wonder and there are many adventure activities to partake in as well as charming cafes, restaurants and bars to mingle with locals and other travellers.
