Overview
This 3-night tour is an ideal extension tour for a safari in South Africa, Botswana or even Zimbabwe/Zambia. We have made it more leisurely than our 2-night Victoria Falls Extension Tour because this tour features the riverside lodges on the banks of the Zambezi river (either on the Zimbabwe side or the Zambian side.
The Falls is a truly awe-inspiring experience – the sights, sounds and, smell of nature’s supreme force. No photograph can begin to depict the reality… and nothing prepares you for your first sight. This takes the form of a walk in the natural rain-forest with a knowledgeable and informative local guide. You’ll discover how the Falls were formed and what local customs and traditions surround them. Take a raincoat and something to protect your camera!
All these Riverside lodges include a range of activities such as game drives on offer, sunset boat cruises, bush walks, village tours and of course a trip to visit the Victoria Falls.
The tour includes road transfers from the airport, Park fees for a Victoria Falls visit, included activities (which vary slightly by lodge) and all local drinks/house wines.
We can easily tailor-make this tour to reduce it to two nights if you prefer. Or even to add on other excursions such as a helicopter flip.
Please note that the price below doesn't include the flight into Victoria Falls as you may be flying in from Johannesburg, the Kruger National Park or Cape Town. This will be adding at time of quotation. The flight price also varies considerably depending on when you book, so we recommend booking as early as possible,
