| Captain your own river cruise adventure on a houseboat on the Vaal River! Take the helm of a self-drive houseboat and navigate the Vaal Barrage. Cruise the 55kms of South Africa’s most dynamic, permanently navigable inland waterway.
We show you the ropes, help you chart your course and you become skipper of your river adventure. And then we provide 24-hour backup support in the unlikely event that you might need us.
Our eight marine architect designed boats are manufactured to the highest safety specifications. Our boats have everything you need. Just bring your clothes, food and towels. Please enquire about our food hampers.
The houseboat can sleep up to five people. Inside it has:
• a fore-cabin with a double bed and storage space
• a fully-appointed galley with gas stove, oven, fridge and sink
• a small heads with a hot shower, chemical toilet and basin
• an inside dining area that converts into a double bed.
• a radio/CD player
Outside is a sitting area under a retractable awning and a charcoal braai. Deck chairs are provided on the upper deck.
Explore the vibrant shorefront attractions, docking at restaurants, spas, golf courses and a casino resort. Try your hand at watersports. Or just chill out in the tube floating behind the boat.
Enjoy house-spotting on Millionaires’ Bend. Test your skill with a fishing rod. Haul out the twitching kit.
As the sun sets, anchor in a secluded wetland. Light up the on-board braai. Go to sleep to the croaking frogs under the starry sky.
An easy hour’s drive south from Joburg and you can be on your own self-drive charter. No special licence required. Just bring yourselves and a sense of adventure. |
