A great way to see Vic Falls is starting with a flight from Johannesburg. The Vic Falls package includes airport/hotel transfers, a guided tour to the falls, the Boma dinner, a sun-downer cruise enjoying the African scenery and wildlife while sipping your favourite alcoholic or non-alcoholic refreshment and watching the sunset over the Zambezi River! Optional activities such as a helicopter or fixed-wing flight over the falls, additional game viewing, visits to a cultural village, bungee jumping, etc can be added.
DAY 1. Johannesburg – Victoria Falls
We start this Victoria Falls package in Johannesburg and fly from the O R Tambo International Airport to Vic Falls Airport and transferred to your hotel. Later this afternoon embark on a 2-hour Sundowner Cruise. Enjoy finger snacks with your favourite alcoholic or soft drink on the Zambezi River.
The cruise is a superb way to relax and enjoy the beauty of the river. You have the opportunity to see a variety of game including hippo, crocodile, elephant and sometimes even rhino, as well as many bird species. Overnight at the Kingdom Hotel.
DAY 2. Vic Falls
The Victoria Falls is in its 150 millionths fantastic year, truly awe-inspiring experience – the sight, the sound, the smell, the humbling feeling that this may indeed be nature’s supreme masterpiece. Nothing prepares one for your first sight of the falls. On this guided tour, you will be accompanied through the rainforest by a qualified guide who will give a brief history of the Falls themselves as well as detailing the flora, fauna, bird and wildlife and other points of interest. We return to the hotel later or you can do our own exploring.
Early evening you are transferred to the Boma Place of Eating… This is not just another ethnic restaurant but a rather unique cultural experience. You will be greeted in local languages and invited to take part in a hand washing ceremony before sampling traditional beer and snacks before dinner. Excellent cuisine, including a variety of game meats and traditional Zimbabwean dishes, are on offer. The meal is accompanied by entertainment from traditional dancers, the storyteller and a local witch-doctor for some fortune-telling. After dinner, the Sangoma tells tales of the country’s folklore, culture and heritage. The highlight of the evening is the interactive drumming and dancing, so come prepared to participate. Overnight at the hotel.
3. Vic Falls – Johannesburg – Return Flight
