General information Tamarind Trail Lower Zambezi river

Explorer Canoe Safaris are semi-participatory – meaning camps are not already set up for your arrival and that everyone helps to put up tents each evening.
Tents supplied are very easy to set up, two-man, dome tents.

These type of safaris are self-contained,  meaning all equipment and food is carried in the canoes and there is no vehicle back up.

Daily Routine
Your day will start with tea/coffee and biscuits at sunrise. Early mornings make for easy paddling as the wind is calm and is not too hot. A stop will be made for breakfast, usually after a couple of hours.

Paddling continues after breakfast until lunchtime. Time out also for a siesta to avoid the midday heat. The night stop is reached at approximately 5pm and the camp is unpacked and setup. Campsites are typically set up on islands and all sites are designated by National Parks.
