Top Destinations & Experiences We Cover

Victoria Falls is more than just a waterfall — it’s a gateway to unforgettable landscapes, wildlife adventures, cultural encounters, and river thrills. At Victoria Falls Africa, we guide travelers through the entire experience, from the roar of the falls to the wild heart of nearby national parks. With our deep local knowledge and carefully selected activity providers, we make sure your journey is complete, safe, and unforgettable.

Below are some of the top destinations and experiences we cover, each tailored to give you a deeper, more personal connection with Victoria Falls and its surroundings.

Victoria Falls Rainforest Tour – Zimbabwe & Zambia

Exploring the rainforest trails surrounding Victoria Falls is the most iconic way to witness the sheer power and beauty of the falls up close. At Victoria Falls Africa, we help you see both sides — the Zimbabwe side offers 75% of the waterfall’s face and the most panoramic viewpoints, while the Zambia side offers thrilling angles including access to Knife Edge Bridge and the Boiling Pot.

We arrange fully guided rainforest tours, available as private or group options, with early morning and late afternoon departures to help you avoid crowds and capture the best photos. The experience includes a walk through indigenous rainforest dripping with mist, learning about local flora, colonial history, geological formations, and spiritual legends surrounding this UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Helicopter Flights Over Victoria Falls (Flight of Angels)

One of the most breathtaking experiences you can have in Victoria Falls is seeing the waterfall from the sky. Our helicopter tours offer the famous “Flight of Angels” — a thrilling aerial journey above the falls, the zigzagging gorges, and the upper Zambezi River.

We help you choose the best time of day, the ideal flight route, and a trusted operator. All helicopter rides include professional pilots, headset narration, and optional photography packages. Whether you book a 12-minute classic loop or a longer 25-minute scenic flight, this experience gives you a full understanding of the waterfall’s power and its place in the larger ecosystem.

Zambezi River Cruises – Sunset, Lunch & Luxury Options

The mighty Zambezi River is the lifeline of Victoria Falls, and cruising its waters is one of the most peaceful and scenic ways to unwind after a day of exploring. We offer a wide range of river cruise options, from romantic sunset sails to family-friendly lunch cruises and exclusive fine-dining boats.

Our most popular cruise is the sunset cruise, which includes drinks, snacks, and the chance to see hippos, crocodiles, elephants, and birds along the riverbank. Luxury upgrades include gourmet dinners, live music, and even private boat charters. For those seeking adventure, we also offer rafting trips and canoe safaris on calmer stretches of the Zambezi.

Devil’s Pool & Livingstone Island Tour

On the Zambian side of Victoria Falls, the dry season opens up access to one of Africa’s most thrilling natural attractions: the Devil’s Pool. Perched right at the edge of the waterfall, this natural infinity pool offers brave travelers the chance to swim just inches from the edge of the drop, with safety guided by local professionals.

The experience includes a boat ride to Livingstone Island, guided exploration of the island’s unique geology, a swim in Devil’s Pool (when conditions allow), and a bush-style breakfast, lunch, or high tea depending on your tour time. We assist with border crossing arrangements, park fees, and booking slots in advance, as this is one of the most limited and in-demand experiences in Victoria Falls.

Boma Dinner and Drum Show (Zimbabwe Side)

For a taste of authentic Zimbabwean cuisine and vibrant cultural performance, the Boma Dinner is an unmissable evening. Set in an open-air restaurant just outside Victoria Falls Town, this experience includes a four-course meal of traditional dishes such as game meat, mopane worms, peanut stew, and more.

Throughout the evening, guests are treated to drumming performances, dancing, fortune-telling, and even a chance to learn to play the drums yourself. We recommend this activity as a welcome or farewell dinner for any traveler visiting Victoria Falls. Our team at Victoria Falls Africa secures your reservations, arranges transfers, and helps you choose the right time slot based on your itinerary.

Day Trips to Chobe National Park (Botswana)

Just two hours from Victoria Falls lies one of Africa’s most wildlife-rich destinations — Chobe National Park in Botswana. Known for its large herds of elephants, lions, buffaloes, and riverfront scenery, Chobe is ideal for travelers who want to combine a visit to Victoria Falls with an authentic Big Five safari.

Our Chobe day trips include early morning pickups, cross-border clearance, a river safari cruise, lunch at a lodge, and an afternoon game drive through the park. For those with more time, we also arrange multi-day Chobe safaris, including luxury lodges and mobile camping options.

Zambezi National Park Safaris

Located just outside Victoria Falls Town, Zambezi National Park offers a quick escape into the wild without needing a full-day transfer. We offer half-day and full-day safaris with professional guides who know how to find elephants, giraffes, buffaloes, antelope, and even the elusive leopard.

Game drives are offered in open vehicles, and sunset game drives include sundowners by the river. We also arrange walking safaris and birding excursions within the park, perfect for travelers looking for immersive, eco-friendly experiences close to Victoria Falls.

Safari in Zimbabwe: Why Choose It?

Zimbabwe is home to vast national parks, top-tier guides, and some of the most authentic and affordable safari experiences in Africa. The country is rich in wilderness areas that remain less commercialized and more adventurous.

Top parks in Zimbabwe:

• Hwange National Park – elephants, lions, wild dogs, remote camps
• Zambezi National Park – close to Victoria Falls, great for short safaris
• Mana Pools – walking safaris, canoeing, raw wilderness (seasonal)

Why choose Zimbabwe:

• Excellent guiding quality (top-tier training)
• Lower-cost lodges and camps compared to Botswana
• Great for walking safaris and remote camps
• Easy to combine with Victoria Falls town and activities
• More cultural interactions and community-based lodges

Safari in Botswana: Why Choose It?

Botswana is known for high-end, exclusive safaris in pristine environments. With a strong focus on conservation and low-impact tourism, Botswana limits visitor numbers, making for uncrowded, luxurious wildlife experiences.

Top parks in Botswana:

• Chobe National Park – huge elephant herds, river cruises
• Okavango Delta – mokoro safaris, Big Five, private reserves
• Moremi Game Reserve – predator-rich, top-class lodges

Why choose Botswana:

• Best for luxury and exclusivity
• Incredible wildlife density, especially in Chobe and Delta
• Unique water-based safaris in the Okavango
• Consistently high service standards
• Perfect for photographers and honeymooners

So, Which Is Better for Safari?

Choose Zimbabwe if you want:

• A more affordable safari without sacrificing quality
• To support local communities and guides
• Walking safaris and fewer crowds
• Easy integration with Victoria Falls Town

Choose Botswana if you want:

• Luxury lodges and top-tier exclusivity
• Photographic safaris with minimal vehicles
• River-based and Delta experiences
• High-end, curated travel

Or… do both. At Victoria Falls Africa, we help travelers build combination safaris that include Hwange in Zimbabwe and Chobe or the Delta in Botswana — offering the best of both worlds.

What Is the Best Month to Go to Victoria Falls?

The best time to visit Victoria Falls depends on what kind of experience you’re after:

• February to May: The waterfall is at its most powerful just after the rainy season, with heavy mist and thunderous spray. Ideal for dramatic photography, but visibility at some viewpoints can be limited due to water volume.
• June to August: Water levels begin to drop, and you get clearer views of the gorge and rock formations. The weather is dry and cool — great for combining safari with the falls.
• September to November: The water flow is lowest, especially on the Zambian side, but it’s the best time for Devil’s Pool, white water rafting, and safari game viewing.

At Victoria Falls Africa, we help you choose the perfect month based on your goals — whether you’re chasing rainbows or river thrills.

Can You Do a Safari from Victoria Falls?

Absolutely. You can do multiple world-class safaris from Victoria Falls, all within a few hours’ reach:

• Chobe National Park (Botswana): 1.5–2 hours away. Ideal for a day trip with river cruise + game drive. Known for elephants, lions, and boat-based wildlife viewing.
• Hwange National Park (Zimbabwe): 3 hours away. Best for multi-day safaris, predator sightings, and fewer crowds.
• Zambezi National Park (Zimbabwe): 10 minutes from town. Perfect for a half-day game drive near the river.

Whether you have one day or a full week, Victoria Falls Africa builds safari extensions that begin right from your lodge or hotel — complete with transfers, guides, and border assistance.

Which Month Is Best for Safari in Zimbabwe?

The best safari season in Zimbabwe runs from June to October — during the dry season. Animals gather around waterholes, visibility is excellent, and temperatures are mild.

• June to August: Cooler weather, great for walking safaris and crisp morning game drives
• September to October: Hot and dry, but peak for elephants, predators, and big herds in Hwange

During this time, Hwange National Park and Zambezi National Park offer exceptional sightings, and it’s also perfect for pairing with Victoria Falls tours.

How Much Does a 7-Day African Safari Cost?

A 7-day African safari can cost anywhere between $1,500 and $9,000 per person, depending on your destination, accommodation type, and level of exclusivity.

With Victoria Falls Africa, our most popular 7-day packages include:

• 2 nights in Victoria Falls (Zimbabwe or Zambia)

• 1 night in transit (or a beach extension)
• Transfers, meals, park fees, and activities

We also offer optional add-ons like helicopter flights, cultural visits, or Zanzibar beach extensions.

Zambia Visa – What You Need to Know
