Paddle into the wilderness

Multi-day canoe safaris on the Lower Zambezi - the most immersive way to experience wild Africa.

In partnership with River Horse Safaris

The most immersive way to see the river

Nothing else on the Zambezi comes close to a multi-day canoe safari. You leave the lodge by canoe and paddle into a wilderness of hippos, elephants and crocodiles, camp on remote sandbanks, and return with memories most safaris have made you forget were possible.

Breezes River Lodge is the base camp for these expeditions, operated in partnership with River Horse Safaris. You start and end your safari here - staying in a chalet before and after your time on the river.

Starting & ending at Breezes

Your launch point and your landing

Canoe safari guests stay at Breezes before and after their river expedition. Our comfortable chalets and riverside setting make the perfect launch point - and the perfect place to unwind when you return, tired and sun-scorched and quietly transformed.

We handle your pre-safari night, your vehicle handover and your after-safari recovery. All you need to do is show up ready to paddle.
