Getting There - Binga
Binga is a lot easier and cheaper to reach from Victoria Falls airport
for your house boat safari especially as there are no flights presently
to Kariba town at the other end of lake Kariba
Road transfers take 3.5 to 4 hrs from Victoria Falls airport to Binga
and are easy for us to arrange
Enjoy a luxury cruise on one of the many house boats available and
sleep out on deck under starry skies.
Useful Information
The fishing is very good on this side of lake Kariba and the best tiger
fishing is at Sengwe River - which is a good days cruise from Binga.
Relax and enjoy the vastness of the Sengwa Basin and the contrasting
narrowness of the Chete Gorge
The Kariba shoreline is mainly Forestry dept area where hunting is
permitted. The game are shy and although not seen in the abundance of
Matusadona, they are are still plentiful
All round better fishing opportunities are to be found at Binga - the
islands are home to plenty of game and the lake is not as busy as the
more popular Kariba town side

Lake Kariba Ferry
Two ferries connect the distant eastern and western
ends of Lake Kariba and provides a leisurely overnight exploration of
the length of lake kariba. Cars can be accommodated to allow for a continuation
of the trip by road to Victoria Falls. Unfortunately for the time being
they run very sporadically, mainly in school holidays.
