Victoria Falls Private Tour
Description
The iconic Victoria Falls holds the title of the longest waterfall globally, showcasing nature's grandeur of its kind. During this excursion, we'll explore the most breathtaking viewpoints in Zimbabwe and Zambia.
Private Tour of Victoria Falls
Your journey begins with a pickup from your accommodation in Victoria Falls, followed by our drive to Victoria Falls National Park on the Zimbabwean side. Upon arrival, you will understand why the locals refer to Victoria Falls as "the smoke that thunders," a magnificent natural formation sculpted by the Zambezi River over the last 100,000 years.
While on the Zimbabwe side, we will visit the major viewpoints, where you can appreciate stunning panoramic vistas of four significant cascades: Rainbow Falls, Horseshoe Falls, Main Falls, and Devil's Cataract. One key benefit of this side is the expansive scenic views.
Following our exploration of Zimbabwe, we will proceed across the Victoria Falls Bridge to enter Mosi-Oa-Tunya National Park in Zambia. The bridge itself is a noteworthy landmark and amazing photographic spot.
In Zambia, our visits will include essential viewpoints, such as the Eastern Cataract waterfall, as well as the Knife-Edge Bridge. Depending on the time of year, prepare for some splashes, ranging from a light mist to being drenched. This side of the falls allows for a closer interaction with the water.
We will conclude the tour by returning you to your accommodation in Victoria Falls.
Hotel Pickup Information

Tour on the Zimbabwean Side

When you arrive at the entrance of each national park, you'll have to pay the corresponding entrance fee. On the Zimbabwe side, it costs 58USD. The entrance fee for the Zambian side is 20USD. Children from 6 to 12 years old have a 50% discount on tickets, and children under 6 years old have free access.
