Exceptional service - The service offered by this company is exceptional from meeting us at the airport they never missed a beat. Zambezi Dinner and River Cruise was excellent. We also did a tour of the falls followed by lunch at the look out Cafe with them as well as a trip into Botswana for a river cruise to see hippos lots and lots of hippos followed by a game drive thru Chobe National Park. They also arrange a trip to Zambia where we walked with a ranger and a guide to see the magnificent white Rhinos followed by a tour of the falls from the Zambia side. You really need to see the falls from both sides to appreciate how majestic they are. Thanks team we had a wonderful unforgettable time

Great experience and super service!!! Must try!!! - There two things to do in the evening in Victoria Falls: Duma the African dinner with dance and the sundowner boat cruise. Well we chose the second one and we went with Wild Horizons. They were superb… we cruised through the river with great cocktails and toom pictures of hippos, crocodiles etc. And there were a splendid dinner that you would normally find in fine dine restaurants. The crew were amazing. Definitely recommend!!!!

Wild Indded - Four course meal in heart of Zambezi river. The back drop the sun setting in African sky. We also booked to go to Chobe National Park in Botswana the following day. The team of Wild Horizons organised a vehicle and boat safari. We had lunch at Creata Mewana, which was yummy.

In the top - Extremely serious company contact by Wh.......pp to confirm the meeting time to pick us up, no delay. We did the 2 hour sunset cruise with unlimited drinks and small snacks. Magnificent boat, explanations, attentive staff, nothing to complain about and then they drop you off at your lodge. Perfect

Fantastic trip - Picked up from our hotel and taken to river. Little bit confusing as many groups and many boats but got on the correct one. Everyone had a comfortable seat and table. Good selection of inclusive drinks. Saw a large group of hippopotamuses which was very exciting. Lovely sunset. Hot snacks were also provided which were tasty and excellent quality. Perfect end to our trip to Victoria Falls.

Essential trip when in Victoria Falls - When in this area, I would say this is a must to do. Pretty relaxing experience followed by basic snacks and free drinks. Whenever I go, I take a local beer or wine, this time it was Zambezi beer while floating on Zambezi river. The sunset may be idyllic, I met a few pleasant people on the boat…

I will recommend! - Sightings of the herds of elephants and hippopotamuses while cruising in the Zambezi river with a view of the stunning sunset was the highlight of the cruise. The snack food and beverage need improvement for a better variety finger food and drink options.

Lots of wildlife to be seen - We booked with Wild Horizons as they close to our hotel on the river. Initially we were a bit reluctant however once we were on board we were offered G&T’s with nibble. The guide was very knowledgeable on pointing out the wildlife in particular the numerous birds. Saw plenty of hippo and elephants.
