Travel bucket list idea:
Boma Dinner & Drum Show
Victoria Falls Town, Matabeleland North, Zimbabwe

This vibrant restaurant ticks all the right tourist boxes, from colourful African décor and crackling fires to beaming waiters and cold beers. The menu is focused on meaty barbecue fare; brace yourself to taste your way through Zambezi bream, crocodile tail, guinea fowl, warthog and impala.
But people really come for the entertainment – with singers and dancers ensuring a drum-banging, foot-stomping good time. It’s bright, brash and ridiculously popular.
Logistics
Getting there & doing it
It seats up to 300 diners a night, but in the height of summer you’ll have to book well in advance to have a hope of getting a table. The price excludes drinks. Children are allowed, and pay half price aged 3-11. Under 3s eat free.
When to do it
It operates all year round, seven days a week. The whole experience lasts 3 hours, from 7pm-10pm. Go at 6pm and request a front-row table.
