My wife and I recently took a sunset cruise on the Zambezi by Zambezi Expedition - Great staff, beautiful animals, stunning sunset, enjoyable drinks. So pleasant that we ended up going out for an evening meal with the four other guests (two couples - 2 Zimbabwean, 2 Canadian) - we were all hugely impressed - particularly by the knowledgeable staff."
