Not to be missed! - We had a fantastic night at the Boma Dinner and Drum show. Loved how we were all given a “sarong” to wear on entry and once shown to our table we got to sample the local traditional home brew and had the hand washing tradition. The food was excellent, very proud of my mopani worm Certificate! The drum show was a lot of fun too, all round a great night and highly recommended. A big thank you to Isabella from Afro Dawn tours who picked us up for our lodge and was so lovely.

The food was ok. The... - The food was ok. The waiters were kind and polite. The show was good and interactive. The only thing I was not happy with was the pick up. The driver was late. I called the tour operator a few times without getting a reply. This made me very upset and disappointed. However, after the driver showed up, she apologized for her latecoming and bought us a gift. This made me feel much better. In fact, she was a very friendly and kind person who shared a lot about Victoria Falls with us along the way. So I still decided to give this experience a 5 star. Other than the pick up, everything was good.

Mesmerizing experience - The Boma dinner and drum show was so much fun. I ate a lot of great food, the service is outstanding, and the entertainment is all worth every penny. I strongly recommend it!

Great experience but better explanation needed. - Food was lovely and very plentiful! It was a fun experience but I just wish the staff had explained what was going to happen through the evening better. Some tables you can’t actually see the “stage area” despite all seats being same price. The show happens intermittently throughout the evening, while you and others are going back and forth to the buffet and still trying to eat. As our table was one you couldn’t see from, I found it hard to know if I should keep eating or leave my food and go and watch - but the plates would always be cleared when you left your seat.

Fun evening only if you have good seats. - It was good food and entertainment but it doesn't quite justify the $$. The advertisement made it sound like a lot of african music and dancing but it was limited to a short time. It says face painting, but that is just three dots painted on before you enter. If you aren't in a front seat, you won't see much at all. There are limited front seats. We (2 of us) got a front seat because I booked with the hotel (that's what we are assuming). Little did I know when I did book through them, that they were charging $30 more then if we went straight thru to Bomo. I think though, we got the best seats because we booked and paid a premium so in the end it was well the extra $$ for us, but maybe not for you. It is a bit hyped up but it was a fun evening. There is no stage, it is just a walking space where they perform. Anyone sitting in 80% of the seats won't be able to see much without standing.

Come for the drumming - I did this my first night in Vic Falls. Good first night activity. The best part was drumming along with the performers and dancing. I did eat the worm and got my certificate! My advice is to try everything, if only a bite. My only complaints were that my waiter brought me the wrong wine and never checked on me until time for the bill. Also the hotel pickup was late with no communication, but my driver was very friendly. Bring some small bills to tip the performers.
