Senanga Horse Safaris - Victoria Falls

Senanga Horse Safaris offers a memorable experience for your clients - a natural and environmentally friendly way to view game is on horseback.

The wildlife is completely unconcerned with the presence of horses - enabling game viewing from close proximity with excellent photographic opportunities. It also allows the smaller, seldom seen species to be found in the thickets and scrub.  

Senanga Horse Safaris is situated next to Spencers Creek Crocodile Ranch and Nature Sanctuary. Our rides explore the waterholes and animal tracks along the boundary of the Zambezi National Park and along the Zambezi River.  

We offer both novice and experienced rides all year round in either the morning or the afternoon.
