Dear Past, Present and Future Guests,
We are thrilled to share some exciting news with you! Zambezi Drift is officially expanding from a houseboat operator into a full-service travel agency.
What does this mean for you? While our beloved houseboats, Peregrine and Malachite, will remain at the heart of what we do, we can now help you plan even more unforgettable Kariba experiences. From luxury houseboats and lakeside lodges to hotels, fishing adventures, sunset cruises, wildlife experiences, and family getaways, we can assist with finding the perfect option for every type of traveller.
Our passion has always been showcasing the very best of the destinations we know and love. Kariba is just the beginning of our journey. As our first step, we will be focusing on offering a wide range of experiences and accommodation options throughout Kariba. The second phase will see us expanding into the Zambezi Valley, before ultimately growing our offerings across the rest of Zimbabwe and the wider SADC region. Our vision is to become your trusted travel partner for discovering some of Southern Africa’s most incredible destinations.
Our website is currently undergoing an exciting makeover and should be ready within the next month. Along with a fresh new look, it will feature accommodation and activity options, travel inspiration, special offers and discounts, as well as regular blogs and vlogs showcasing daily life in the destinations we visit, behind-the-scenes travel experiences, and helpful tips to inspire your next adventure.
As always, thank you for your continued support. Whether you’ve travelled with us before, are planning your first Kariba getaway, or simply enjoy following our journey, we are excited to have you with us as we embark on this new chapter.
We hope to chat with you soon and help you plan and book your next dream adventure.
Warm regards,
The Zambezi Drift Team
Your journey starts here — from Kariba to the Zambezi, Zimbabwe, and beyond.
