FAQ
Is the Kariba Dam in a Malaria area?
Yes, it is. Please speak with your doctor about the necessary prophylactics. The houseboat is equipped with mosquito nets, but we would advise that you bring along a topical insect repellant to apply, especially in the evenings.
What should I bring with me?
While we couldn’t attempt a complete list that would suit every individual’s personal needs, the following items should probably be on your packing list:
- Camera
- Binoculars
- Reading material
- Board/card games
- Prescription medicine
- Topical insect repellant
- Sunscreen
- Sun hat and sunglasses
- Essential care items such as: rehydration salts, painkillers/headache tablets, Valoid or anti-nausea medicine, Immodium, Enos or any antacid, plasters and antiseptic, antihistamine tablets or cream, aftersun cream
Directions to Return To Eden Houseboat?
Take the Charara turn off before getting to Kariba – 51 km from Makuti and about 25 km before Kariba.
Follow the road toward NAUZ,
then continue past NAUZ,
past Ceruti Lodge,
and carry on until you see a sign on a concrete block on the left saying Avalon D Watt 716.
Turn left at that sign and then right.
Our house will be the third on the left.
