Within an hour the landscape flattens into floodplain and mopane woodland; the river appears like a silver line that dares you closer. On a single day you’ll trade the throb of the town for open savanna, board a shallow-draft boat, and sit quietly while elephants water at the bank and kingfishers dart like bright punctuation.
