African Queen Houseboat

The African Queen is a charming, double-decked pontoon-style houseboat gracefully placed on the serene shores of Lake Kariba, Zimbabwe. Designed with a perfect blend of comfort, simplicity, and classic Kariba character, this houseboat offers a laid-back yet memorable floating escape sleeping 12 guests (10 in cabins). Her spacious layout and relaxed atmosphere make her ideal for families, friends, and small groups looking to unwind on the water. Whether you're in search of peaceful cruising through quiet inlets, early morning fishing trips, or afternoons spotting elephants, hippos, and vibrant birdlife along the shoreline, The African Queen serves as the perfect base. It’s not just a boat — it’s your private lodge on the lake, offering the ultimate combination of scenic beauty, wildlife adventure, and barefoot luxury.
