Observing the diverse bird and wildlife on Africa’s great lakes, dams and rivers is a fantastic and unique way to enjoy a safari.

With plenty of luxury options across both South and East Africa, relax and meander along deep flowing waterways and mighty open expanses, spotting wildlife and taking day trips out fishing. Wake up to herds of elephants crossing the river in front of you then kick back and enjoy a sundowner as you watch the colours spread across the evening sky. For avid twitchers, the birding on houseboats is an excellent way to spot rare waterbirds.
