Siya Kolisi leans on the rail as the boat glides forward. The Zambezi shimmers beneath him, catching the soft evening light. Soon, he breaks into song, voice rolling over the gentle engine hum. Teammates, family and new friends laugh, phones already capturing the moment.
Meanwhile, Victoria Falls rumbles in the distance, yet the mood on board stays calm. A soft breeze carries his voice across the wide, whispering river. Fans on nearby boats recognise him quickly and cheer back with delight.
“MdaraLand” and a Warm Zimbabwean Welcome
Lush riverbanks drift past, framing Africa’s most famous waterfall in glowing colour. Kolisi lifts his phone and types a playful caption on Instagram. “Mdaraland

love it here,” he writes, grinning broadly. In Zimbabwe, “Mdara” is a friendly name for a grown man. It can mean old man, father, or simply respected brother.
Therefore, Kolisi’s “Mdaraland” salute gently honours Zimbabwean men with affectionate humour. The phrase instantly connects him with local fans following every post.
Captain Kolisi Off the Field
As the music rises, the boat becomes a small floating party. Kolisi sings louder, sometimes leading, sometimes bursting into laughter between lyrics. People dance along, while the captain of the Springboks simply enjoys the beat. Here, he is not lifting trophies; instead, he is lifting spirits.
Moreover, his relaxed joy shows another side of a famous competitor. Supporters on board whisper, amazed to share such an easy moment. They see a champion who still makes time for fun. From packed stadiums to Victoria Falls, his energy remains generous and grounded.
Tonight, on this sunset cruise, Siya Kolisi proves heroes also need holidays. The memory will linger like spray from the Falls, bright and unforgettable. For Zimbabwe’s tourism, moments like this travel far beyond the river.
