Practical details

Guiding is offered in English. A mobile ticket is accepted, so there is nothing to print. Bookings are taken for up to 4 travellers at a time. The operator may cancel for bad weather, in which case you are offered another date or a refund. The departure can also be cancelled if too few people book.

Where this fits in your trip

Heritage and community visits are run with local guides and are at their best when you go with questions rather than a camera. Victoria Falls town sits on the Zimbabwean bank of the Zambezi, a short walk from the rainforest viewpoints and close enough to the gorge that the spray is visible from the main street in full flood. Most visitors base themselves here for two or three nights and fill the days with a mix of water, air and game viewing.

Explore the area

Victoria Falls has more to offer than a single outing. Plan the rest of your time around it:
