Top: Zimbabwe: Victoria Falls

Description

Partially open to the African skies and sheltered by the indigenous Gusu forest lies the award winning Boma restaurant. This offers a unique African experience that bombards the senses with the tastes, sights, sounds and smells of Africa.

On arrival, guests partake in a hand-washing ceremony before sampling traditional beer and snacks. The four-course meal combines a la carte starters with a barbecue buffet that includes such local delicacies as mopani worms and game stews (although more standard fare and vegetarian dishes are also available). After dinner, why not participate in some drumming or dancing?

It is open for dinner from 7.00pm until late 365 days of the year. Very popular prior booking is essential
