Explorer Canoe Safaris - Fisheagle Safari

Natureways Safaris, Fisheagle Canoe Safari is 6 days / 5 nights and starts from Kariba and ends in Mana Pools National Park.

Each day you will canoe a certain distance down the river, Day One is 18 km, Day Two is 27km and Day Three is 28 km, Day Four is 27km, Day Five is 23 km and Day Six is 7 km.

Generally the day starts with tea/coffee and biscuits at sunrise. Camp is then packed up and the party sets off. Early mornings make for easy paddling as the wind is calm and it is not yet too hot. A stop will be made for breakfast, usually after a couple of hours. The trip continues after breakfast, until breaking for a light lunch and siesta to avoid the midday heat. The night stop is reached at approximately 5pm and the camp is unpacked and setup. Campsites are typically set up on islands and all sites are designated by National Parks.

There are no ablution facilities on these safaris. You are provided with a spade, toilet paper and matches - with which to burn the toilet paper. Bathing is done from a bucket using water scooped out of the river.
