Moving along the banks of the great Chobe River, Zambezi Queen is a 5-star, 42-metre long luxury houseboat offering unparalleled sophistication in one of the most remote locations on the planet.
The gorgeous 42-meter, 5-star Zambezi Queen is located on the great Chobe River and is a luxury houseboat offering a unique safari experience in one of Africa's most remote locations. Guests can look forward to unparalleled game viewing in complete comfort and elegance.
The Zambezi Queen boasts 14 luxurious suites—ten Standard Suites and four slightly larger Master Suites. Each suite has an en-suite bathroom with a shower, full-length sliding shutters, hairdryers, bathroom amenities, bathrobes, slippers, an in-room safe, air conditioning, a fan, and outer decks where you can soak up the sights and sounds of the surrounding African bush.
While both types of suites let you relax in a luxurious setting, the Master Suites are slightly bigger and have larger balconies with two deckchairs and a table. The Master Suites also feature both side and front sliding doors for a truly panoramic view of your surroundings.
The facilities offered onboard the Zambezi Queen include a boarding area, reception, curio shop, smoking area, lounge, dining room, and a pool deck with a swimming pool.
There is no specific best or worst time to visit the Chobe area, as every month offers visitors something special. However, if guests are looking for a pure wildlife experience, the drier winter months from June to August see greater concentrations of game along the banks of the Chobe River. The summer months from November to May offer an explosion of birdlife, with the addition of migratory birds in the area.
The Chobe National Park boasts one of the densest populations of elephants on the African continent, estimated at approximately 120,000. The park is also home to a large number of buffalo, leopards, and lions, along with a variety of antelope and abundant birdlife. The park is within traveling distance of one of the greatest natural wonders of the world, Victoria Falls.
Activities offered on the Zambezi Queen include unique water-based game viewing, birding, tiger and bream fishing in season (catch and release), a cultural tour of a local village, and a photo safari.
The Zambezi Queen is ideal for solo explorers, couples, and families looking for a unique, luxury safari getaway.

Excellent and prompt service from Safari.com
I made a general enquiry last year to Safari.com, Shann Shaw's response was reassuring and not overly pushy trying to sell me one of their products. When I finally decided to make a booking through Safari.com again Shann Shaw's response was quick and friendly, giving all the details as necessary. This is a good start to fulfilling my bucket list trip to Victoria Falls, I'm hoping that this is an indication of the service I will receive during my trip.

Excellent service
Information was easy to access thus easy to make a choice of what we wanted. Then we connected with Shann who has been outstanding. She made all the arrangements, answered our many questions, provided ideas and guidance to help us make plans for the entire trip. Shann made planning this trip easy, fun and exciting. Would use Safari again and would highly recommend them.
