Considered by many as the ultimate houseboat experience, The Zambezi queen provides its guests with five-star service, on board a five-star vessel and offers a five-star African safari experience.
We arrived at Kasane Immigration after a pleas-ant 90 min road transfer from Victoria Falls. Kasane International Airport, Botswana, is serviced by daily flights from OR Tambo Airport, Johannesburg, making it easily accessible from South Africa.
As a first time visitor to this part of Botswana, the customs and immigration formalities proved quite daunting and confusing at first as we tried to figure out if we were in Botswana or Namibia. Thankfully the Zambezi Queen staff were on hand as soon as we arrived at Kasane Immigration to assist us with immigration formalities.
The Chobe River forms the border between the Chobe National Park in Botswana and Namibia with one-half of the river belonging to Botswana and the other half to Namibia.
The Zambezi Queen’s mooring points are situated in the backwaters on the Namibian side of the river so once Kasane formalities were complete, we stepped straight onto an awaiting tender boat and were whisked off to the Namibian Immigration office further upstream, to complete immigration formalities there; you can see why it gets confusing.
