The Best Destinations for African Canoe Safaris

As Africa’s fourth-longest river, the banks of the Zambezi are teeming with wildlife and replete with hidden gems, just waiting to be discovered. Whether you want to explore the southern part of the river and see the spectacular array of birds at Victoria Falls or spot rhinos as the water crosses through Mana Pools National Park, we’ll help you find the perfect destination for your canoe safari.

Mobile safaris typically include basic accommodation, but at Scott Dunn, simple does not mean uncomfortable. Sleep under the stars at a cosy campsite where you’re greeted with an ice-cold drink and a fresh dinner cooked over the fire. Share stories from the day and then drift into your spacious tent for a good night’s sleep in your full-sized bed. Explore our collection of luxury campsites below.
