Activities Included

You arrive at the Victoria Falls Airport on this day, where you will be picked up and make your way to the joining hotel. Tonight, the adventure begins but before then, you are free to explore your surroundings before your Welcome Meeting in the evening. Your time in the small town of Victoria Falls can be filled with a variety of activities, like a helicopter or microlight flight over the Victoria Falls, and having your breath stolen away by the sight of the largest sheet of falling water in the world, cascading across two countries into a narrow gorge. Make sure to visit this UNESCO World Heritage Site, which is also one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World. When you stand in front of the Victoria Falls you will understand why the indigenous tribe, Tonga, gave it the beautiful and descriptive name of Mosi-Oa-Tunya (The Smoke That Thunders). After your exploration, please be back in time to meet your group at 18:00. After introductions, your Tour Leader will review the details of your trip, as well as recommend a broad selection of restaurants from which you can choose to experience the cuisine on offer in Victoria Falls. You can also book an extra day or two pre-tour to make the most of your stay.
