The lady Livingstone is famously known as “The Jewel of the Zambezi”. The cruise takes place along the river boundary of the Mosi-Oa-Tunya National Park. During the cruise, guests are likely to see hippos, crocodile and some good birdlife. Possible other game sightings are elephant, giraffe, buffalo and buck (although sightings cannot be guaranteed). An experienced guide accompanies each cruise who has good knowledge on the wildlife and local history of the area.
