ZAMBEZI WHITE WATER RAFTING Rampage

Are You Ready To Rumble!!!

Pressured for time in Victoria Falls? Shearwater the pioneers of adventure boldly present a combinations of “two” world-class activities in the tempestuous below the mighty Victoria Falls in the Shearwater Jetboat, followed by 4km white water rafting from rapids 1-5 including 2 grade 5 rapids “Morning Glory” and the famous“Stairway to Heaven”.

 2 hours of adrenaline pumping action and 1 hour to descend and ascend the gorge in a mere 3 hours you will have smashed two Victoria Falls bucket list items.

WHITE WATER RAFTING

Choose between our famous one day trip for a taste of the action or our overnight, two night and four night rafting experiences that take you to parts of the Zambezi very few people get to see. On these longer trips, after a hard day rafting, relax with a cold beer on a white sandy beach and enjoy the peace, quiet and tranquillity of the gorge. You’ll sleep in tents, enjoy freshly cooked meals and experience the stars of a clear African night.

JETBOAT ADVENTURE

Ready to feel the adrenaline coursing through you while our Adventure Jetboat captains plot a course through the Zambezi? Our 465 horsepower, specially made Adventure Jetboat will take you up the rapids and right under the Falls into the Boiling Pot. The true power and intensity of the Falls can only be felt as you view them from below, covered in their spray. 

After leaving the Boiling Pot, it’s time for a fast-paced thrill ride, up and down the rapids as you speed through the Batoka Gorge. Because safety comes first, our Jetboat was purpose-built for the Zambezi and our captains have been specially trained. They’ll make sure you have the experience of a lifetime and then they’ll get you home safely.
