Sunset Cruise Signature Deck

The Signature Deck Sunset Cruise follows a relaxed, premium 2-hour itinerary designed around the changing colors of the African sky.

Because the sunset time shifts throughout the year, the itinerary runs on a Summer Schedule (November to April) and a Winter Schedule (May to October).
