Cholwe Adventures

Is there anything more thrilling than hurtling down the Zambezi River? Cholwe Adventures, established in 2004 right here in Livingstone, can make that dream a reality. They are known for their white water rafting trips. The Zambezi is famous for being one of the wildest one-day whitewater runs in the world. Cholwe Adventures operates these exhilarating excursions year-round. The river’s conditions change with the seasons, creating different experiences depending on when you go. Low water season, from August to January, offers the wildest rides. High water season is from February to July. There’s even a short “closed season” around April/May, depending on the rains. And what’s even better? Cholwe Adventures includes breakfast, a light lunch, beers, soft drinks, mineral water, and transport in their rafting package. They even offer optional DVDs and photos to commemorate your wild adventure. But Cholwe Adventures offers more than just adrenaline rushes. Looking for a calmer experience? Try their canoeing trips. These operate above Victoria Falls. You can enjoy the tranquility of the Zambezi as you paddle downstream in inflatable two-man canoes. The trails start about 25km upstream from the Falls. You’ll spend about 18km canoeing through the Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park. This is a fantastic opportunity to see wildlife like the endangered white rhino and numerous bird species. Cholwe Adventures includes breakfast, drinks, and transport for the half-day trip. The full-day trip includes lunch as well. For the anglers among you, Cholwe Adventures offers fishing trips. You can explore the lush riverine jungle and islands leading up to Victoria Falls. The Zambezi teems with wildlife. You might see elephants, antelope, crocodiles, hippos, and an array of birds. You can fish for tiger fish and tilapia. Cholwe Adventures promotes catch and release for tiger fish, but you can keep a trophy fish if you wish. Tilapia, however, are plentiful and delicious, so you might get to taste your catch. Fishing gear, drinks, and transport are all included. Cholwe Adventures is a young and enthusiastic company.
