discover the majestic Victoria Falls
and Botswana
Warm Welcome to one of the Seven Wonders of the Natural World
A warm welcome on arrival at Victoria Falls International Airport, where an English-speaking driver will escort you to the hotel.
Located on the Zambezi River, Victoria Falls is bordered by Zimbabwe and Zambia. The majestic waterfall was named by David Livingstone after the nineteenth century British Queen. Victoria Falls – indigenously named Mosi-oa-Tunya or “Smoke that Thunders” is said to be one of the world’s largest waterfalls with its curtain of falling water. The spray from the waterfall can be seen almost 30 km’s away when the falls are in full force.
After checking in and taking in the surrounds, your adventure will begin with a sunset cruise on the Zambezi River.
The African Queen and the African Princess are berthed just upstream of The Victoria Falls at the Royal Landing jetty. The boats meander approximately 3km up stream along the length of the Mosi-au-Tunya National Park treating you to sophisticated views of the Zambezi River and the surrounding game reserves. Several animals and a host of bird species may be viewed during the cruise.
Head back to the hotel and enjoy dinner at leisure.
Victoria Falls – The Smoke that Thunders
After breakfast, you will be met in the hotel reception by a local English-speaking guide, for a helicopter flight and tour of the Victoria Falls.
Arrive at the Helicopter Pad in time for a short safety briefing before you take off.
To put the Victoria Falls into true perspective, they must really be seen from the air. The sheer size and grandeur of the spectacle becomes all the clearer from above. The huge Zambezi River flowing slowly South with hippos and crocodiles clearly visible in the shallow waters, elephants quietly browsing on bright green islands as the water spreads across the full width of a great rent in the Earth before crashing over the lip in a burst of spray and then squeezing into a narrow, foaming, blast of water washing down the zigzag tunnel of the gorge.
After the flight, you will be transferred to the Victoria Falls Rainforest where a guided adventure will begin.
A guided tour of the Falls enables you to delve into the local customs and traditions while gaining insight into how such an exquisite creation came to be. An aura of excitement envelopes everyone who lays eyes on this incredible spectacle, the Victoria Falls possesses a beauty that is impossible to replicate through any man-made efforts. It is a natural wonder of the world, created by nature to remind us of just how powerful and complex she is.
