The Zimbabwe side of the lake has about 1 000 kilometres of shoreline, baked African fjords with placid backwaters and numerous islands. Often elephants can be seen swimming between the shore and islands, a sight perhaps unique to Lake Kariba. Game viewing by boat is a popular activity, since it provides an unusual and effective way of approaching land-based animals without causing alarm - to both the animals and the tourists. Crocodile and hippo abound and walking or land rover game viewing are possible.
 
 

Salon Privè Kariba Zimbabwe the world's most luxurious and exciting African water wildlife holiday adventure! Lake Kariba, nearly 7700 square kilometers of blue water, studded with islands, fringed by mountains and forests, is a haven for the wildlife along its shores and a playground for watersports enthusiasts. Cruising Kariba on our cabin cruiser equipped with a specialized crew who cook for you and take you game viewing and fishing, is an experience of a lifetime. The holiday town of Kariba has sophisticated hotels, casinos and restaurants and daily flights to Harare and Victoria Falls.

In a world made smaller by the jet engine and the automobile, there are few places left for the traveller who wants to escape the stresses and strains of the modern world and experience life closer to nature. Zimbabwe is home to one such place. Lake Kariba, running nearly three hundred kilometres from one end to the other, is a paradise for the discerning tourist who wants to catch a glimpse of an unspoilt Africa that has all but disappeared from the rest of the continent.

Kariba wildlife safari

Visitors to the lake can enjoy the unique privilege of viewing copious wildlife not just from a minibus, but from the tranquility of our cruiser on the water itself. Elephant, lion, buffalo, waterbuck, duiker, leopard, jackal, impala, kudu, zebra and even the occasional rhino can all be seen from extraordinary vantage point.
