Relish the great attention to detail and friendly service on your voyage. Fish for Tiger fish, visit local villages and enjoy thrilling game drives and game viewing in Chobe National Park.

We love the lavish boutique hotel accommodation on a boat – in the form of 14 refined suites decorated in simple nautical tones with plenty of sun and light, wildlife art and a feeling of being on holiday on an island somewhere. Choose form 10 standard suites and four spacious master suites, all with outside decks with chairs because you will live out there, drink in hand, as you game view and just breathe in the beauty of the charming Chobe River landscape on either side of your floating home. 

The food on Zambezi Queen Chobe adds so much more to this blissful water safari because it is fresh, it is decadent and it is perfect.

Move from the dining room to the lounge, then to the bar, and back again – this is your space and all you have to do is look out over the water and watch the wildlife at play. Cruise 25km of the Chobe River, there and back again, getting on and off tender boats to set off in search of animals and birds, and some added excitement to merely cruising on a huge houseboat hotel. 

Boat safaris every day, towards herds of elephants, prides of lions from the Zambezi Queen Chobe. Contact one of our Africa Safari Experts and they’ll tailor-make the perfect Botswana safari holiday for you.

Overview

The Zambezi Queen is innovative moving boutique hotel accommodation on board a large boat based in the Chobe River. This five star luxury houseboat is the queen of the Zambezi River as she plies up and down, providing tourists like you a truly unique safari experience on the Chobe River. Endless wildlife sightings from your deck, superb service and staff enjoying your pleasure. 

This watery boundary between Chobe National Park and Namibia’s Caprivi Strip is made for a cruise on board the Zambezi Queen! It docks only a few kilometres from the point where four African countries meet: Botswana, Namibia, Zambia and Zimbabwe.

Zambezi Queen is based very close to Kasane International Airport which makes the boat a convenient addition to trips to Botswana’s Okavango Delta, Namibia’s Caprivi Strip or Zambia and Zimbabwe’s Victoria Falls. The Zambezi Queen offers very atypical Botswana accommodation in an elegant manner, based on luxury but with a tropical feel.

Usually, the two-night cruise leaves on a Monday and Wednesday and guests are treated to a morning game drive in Chobe National Park and an afternoon or sun downer boat cruise. 

On a three-night cruise keen fishermen can throw a line for tiger fish on a catch-and-release basis or birdwatchers can enjoy a cruise in a tender boat to see incredible bird species on water and land.
