Houseboats on the Vaal River hire a self-drive houseboat and be captain of your own river adventure on the Vaal Barrage. Cruise the 55 km of South Africa's most dynamic, permanently navigable inland waterway. We show you the ropes, help you chart your course and you become skipper of your river adventure. And then we provide 24-hour backup support in the unlikely event that you might need us.

It really is a special experience. In the September 2006 issue of Getaway magazine, their photojournalist wrote: The Old Willow houseboats rank as one of the most fun and relaxing weekends I've ever spent within an hour of Joburg. In the October issue, Old Willow No 7 Houseboat Charters is the Editor's Choice. And then the Getaway news editor identified us as her No1 weekend outing in SA in the Feb 2007 issue.

David Batzofin, writing for the Saturday Star Travel Section in Feb 2007 said: It had truly been a memorable experience, it was two very happy intrepid adventurers that returned to reluctantly hand back the keys at the jetty. We are the exclusive operators of new Leisure Liner houseboats on Vaal waters and our eight marine architect designed boats are manufactured to the highest safety specifications.

Our boats have everything you need. Just bring your clothes, food and towels. Please enquire about our food hampers. The houseboat can sleep up to five people. Inside it has a four-cabin with a double bed and storage space, a fully appointed galley with gas stove, oven, fridge and sink. A small heads with a hot shower, chemical toilet and basin, an inside dining area that converts into a double bed and a radio/CD player.

Outside is a sitting area under a retractable awning and a charcoal braai. Deck chairs are provided on the upper deck. Explore the vibrant shorefront attractions, docking at restaurants, bars, spas, golf courses and a casino resort. Try your hand at water sports. Enjoy house-spotting on Millionaires' Bend. Take to the skies in a gyrocopter. Test your skill with a fishing rod.

Haul out the twitching kit. Light up the on-board braai. Or just chill out in a tube towed behind the boat. An easy hour's drive south from Joburg and you can be on your own self-drive charter adventure. No special license required. Just bring yourselves and a sense of adventure. No single night bookings are accepted over weekends or peak season/Christmas and Easter. Please enquire about specials, pensioner and peak season rates. Please note that petrol is an additional cost that is calculated at the end of the charter. Our charters are extremely popular, especially over weekends, and it is often necessary to book a number of weeks in advance. So don't delay - request a quote now.

Wonderful weekend! by

Thanks for the homely, and welcoming accommodation. Rafiq and I enjoyed our stay thoroughly, and will be sure to refer friends and family to the houseboat, and you may be seeing us again as we'd like to experience the river in the summer time. All the best Natasha

The Margie & Keith Experience on Kingfisher 29 June - 1 July 2007 by

If you want to break away from the hustle and bustle of daily living and all the pressures, we would highly recommned a weekend away on one of your house boats, it was awesome. The peace and tranquility that surrounded us, the space, the wildlife around us, the dark nights that are lit up by the moon, was breathtaking. The inexperience of sailing, well, that was good for a giggle. The houseboat was definitly equipped by a woman that knows her stuff, everything i could possibly think of, was there, well done. We would love to do this again, but this time in the summer. Our weather was awesome, with the exception of the mornings and we woke up at silly times, i.e 04h00 and for the first time in our lives we experienced what frostbite was all about. But it was great, thank you for all the assistance, and the laughs. it truly was memorable.

Thanks for a great experience. The boat is a bit smaller than we imagined, but we had great fun! Perhaps the summer would have been better because it was freezing, but awesome!! Please supply some florescent bait and floaties when fishing equipment is rented as I think it might work better. This was an awesome experience and very unique! Thanks a lot.

The only slight problem was the gas stove not working properly.
