Boat cruises at Kiambi Lower Zambezi
With the Zambezi River as the focal point, we explore the area by boat in search of the wildlife which frequents the river banks. This peaceful form of game viewing allows close-up encounters with a variety of game and birdlife, and - with the breathtaking scenery as backdrop - is undoubtedly a photographer's dream. We also enjoy sunset cruises or a full day game viewing cruises from the comfort of the boats. Our sunset cruises depart in the late afternoon, and are included in a 2 night stay in our fully inclusive rates for our luxury air-conditioned tented chalets and our luxury thatched tented chalets. For those not on a fully inclusive rate, there is a small extra charge, but well worth it, as there is the possibility of seeing elephants, crocodiles, hippo, as well as many different bird species found in the Zambezi Valley. Drinks are served on board, often accompanied by spectacular African sunsets. Please note that we have various boats for hire. If you have not reserved a boat on making your reservation, please enquire at reception on arrival for availability.

Canoeing at Kiambi Lower Zambezi
Arguably one of the finest ways to discover the secrets of the Zambezi. All downstream, this is an easy going, enjoyable canoe ride, and no previous experience is necessary. We use stable 5m Canadian canoes, and all trips are accompanied by an experienced river guide. The best way to experience the Lower Zambezi River is by canoe. Short canoe excursions can be undertaken from the camp. Our 3 hour canoe safari departs after breakfast at +-09h00 to the top of the Island in front of Kiambi Lower Zambezi, by power boat. From the top of the island, you canoe on the southern side of the island to the lower point of the island. We canoe on this side due to good game viewing. You are then returned back to Kiambi Lower Zambezi by power boat. We generally work on a 1 to 4 day canoeing safaris (for further information on our 2, 3 or 4 night canoe safaris please see the package information on our rates page), but tailor made trips can be arranged to suit your interests. Our canoe safaris include a visit to one of our local villages to exchange traditions and meet the friendly population of Zambia. The canoeing from Kiambi Lower Zambezi is unbeatable and if you truly want to experience nature at its best, what better way to do it than from a canoe..

Bird watching at Kiambi Lower Zambezi
Bird watching is excellent all year round in the Lower Zambezi, but the finest season is considered to be from the end of September to March, when the central African migrants are resident in the area. Remember to bring your binoculars and zoom lenses. Birdlife is abundant around Kiambi with a variety of raptors, water birds, and smaller birds commonly sighted. Trumpeter hornbill, Meyer's Parrots, Lilian's Lovebirds and Narina Trogon are but a few of the bird species which can be observed in the Zambezi Valley. Kiambi Lower Zambezi has a Roberts Multimedia Bird's of Southern Africa program on computer in the office, as well as many birding books. Please feel free to use these at your leisure, although they remain the property of Kiambi Lower Zambezi.
