It’s always a good time for a Zambezi River Cruise 🛥️

With an established reputation that sets us apart from the rest, Pure Africa merges professionalism, excellent service and personal flair with the most up to date and modern fleet.

Today our fleet consists of four vessels –

1️⃣ The Zambezi Explorer, Pure Africa’s flagship cruiser which has recently been refurbished and restyled, has three decks, the upper 'Signature Deck' being the most select and where you can enjoy the uninterrupted views of the Zambezi River.

2️⃣ The Zambezi Breeze features spectacular vistas, a central bar, and recently upgraded facilities including a new top deck, solar panels, and natural material furnishings.

3️⃣ Zambezi Reflections is a dedicated floating restaurant and recognised as the premier dining experience on the river, perfect for either group bookings or individual travellers seeking out something exceptional.

4️⃣ Kalunda is a private cruiser that allows guests to peacefully and intimately explore the Zambezi River’s navigable channels as it idles quietly up and down stream.
