Summary

The world’s largest waterfall deserves more than a flying visit. Soak up the spray of Victoria Falls – also known as Mosi-Oa-Tunya or ‘The Smoke That Thunders’ – and check out some of the adventure activities in the local area, like zip-lining, whitewater rafting and canoeing. Learn about the history of this natural wonder from a local guide (so wonderful that it’s been named one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World). Fill your four days by zipping or soaring over the falls or relax instead – it's up to you.

Itinerary

  • Day 1

    Victoria Falls

    Mhoro! Welcome to Zimbabwe. Jump in your airport transfer from Victoria Falls Airport to your home for the next three nights. There are no activities planned today so you’re free to explore on your own. Victoria Falls is the town on the Zimbabwean side of the falls, with spectacular views and a reputation as the adventure capital of Zimbabwe. Maybe head out and find a restaurant serving Muboora (a traditional stew with pumpkin leaves) or Zimbabwe’s national dish sadza (a thick porridge made from maize meal).

  • Day 2

    Victoria Falls

    Get up close to the world’s largest waterfall with a local guide. The Victoria Falls are an enormous curtain of water, about a mile wide, falling 108 m into a narrow gorge below. In the wet season, the spray created can rise an incredible 400 m and the falls are an impressive raging torrent. The spray from the falls can sometimes be seen from kilometres away. In the dry season, the view of the falls is unobstructed by spray and it's possible to see little islets in the river below. This afternoon, head to a local centre with your guide, where you can book whatever activities take your fancy.

  • Day 3

    Victoria Falls

    Today you’re free to design your day at Victoria Falls as you wish. Maybe swing along the shore of the falls or take in the scenery while zipping across the gorge. If you prefer your activities a little less adrenaline pumping, why not cruise along the Zambezi River at sunset? There are plenty of options and you can do as much or as little as you want. If you’d like to soar over the falls in an optional helicopter ride, book one through your local guide with Zambezi Helicopter co CAA Zimbabwe.

  • Day 4

    Victoria Falls

    There are no activities planned for today and you can depart the accommodation at any time. If you wish to spend more time here, just speak to your booking agent.

Customer reviews & ratings

  • Zimbabwe as a country is unfortunate at the moment. But do not let that stop you the people were so friendly and hospitable. They were amazing given the odds they were facing. Go and see it.
