CroisiEurope announced today that they will be expanding into Africa in 2017 for the first time, with a new ship that will cruise exclusively on southern Africa's Chobe and Zambezi rivers. This ship will be in addition to seven other river ships that CroisiEurope is scheduled to launch during the 2016-2017 season.

With room for just 16 passengers, the new luxury vessel will have eight balcony suites, a restaurant, and a rooftop patio with a pool. Cruises will be five-night itineraries, with the option for an additional three-night stay at two CroisiEurope-owned lodges. The land portion of the cruise will include opportunities to go on safaris and visit Victoria Falls.
