Nice turistic show, average dinner, too pricey

I am Italian, totally trustworthy and well travelled. This is a drum show with dinner, $45 plus $4 per beer: way too much for basic food of an average quality. There is a buffet, and you can eat whatever quantity: yes, quantity, not quality. The...More

The Boma

Slighty too commercial according my norm. But ambiance was great and the variety of food was good, including mopane worms, crocodile and different antilope meat. All by all worth a visit and staff tried their best to please the crowd.

Not a Must-Do, but Interesting

If you've every been to a Hawaiian Lua, this is exactly the same (only an African version). Instead of a lei, they pass out traditional robes in the beginning to get you in the spirit. Lots of dancing and there's also an interactive drumming exercise...More

I wasn't sure when my husband suggested we go to The Boma restaurant for dinner. After returning from a safari I thought I wasn't going to be impressed with anything else. How wrong I could be! I loved every minute! So obviously whenever we went...More

Good show

Good diner and dance show, bit crowded, plenty of options for no veg. Grilled, bar B Q, but limited option for vegetation, one of the attractions of Victoria Falls.

Too touristy!

I would definitely not go there for a second time. The food was actually very good and there was a large variety of different dishes at the buffet. Nonetheless the drum show is not worthy and the costs of this restaurant are too high!

Birthday Dinner

A nice place to sample all kinds of African food. Lots of different game to try. More than enough food to fill you up. Entertainment provided, drums and dancing with participation by the customers. Touristy yet fun. Little disappointed being seated in a back corner...More

I arrived and requested a table without a booking, but I would recommend booking before you go, as we got a table on uneven ground and in an undesirable spot. That was in December, peak season.
