Is the Matusadona for Me?

Enjoy the ultimate barefoot luxury on a family holiday aboard your private safari cruiser in Zimbabwe.

The Matusadona is her only luxury motor cruiser on Lake Kariba. Easily accessed from Marineland Harbour near Kariba or Bumi Hills Safari Lodge, the options to combine a traditional African Safari with a private cruise are endless.

With spacious air-conditioned cabin accommodation for up to six passengers on the waterline, you’ll feel at home with nature.

With the gentle lapping of waves, frequent grunts of hippos, the distant lion’s roar and the eerie cry of the Fish Eagle, you are in the natural bush, wrapped in the lap of luxury.

Lake Kariba, 220 km from east to west and 40 km wide, is surrounded by the Matusadona National Park and several life areas on the Zimbabwean side of the lake and—is famous for its overwhelming sunsets, wildlife viewing and tiger fishing.

Matusadona offers the ideal getaway for a family holiday, a romantic honeymoon or simply a timeless break from the rigours of “real life”.
