Holidays to Victoria Falls in Southern Africa

Activities at Victoria Falls

Victoria Falls is the adventure capital of southern Africa – and there is all sorts of exciting action and adventure to be had: micro-lighting above the falls, rafting in the gorge below them, or bungee-ing into them. However, it should also be pointed out that there are plenty of less extreme activities to be enjoyed. These include elephant walks, fishing, canoeing and sunset cruises on the calm upper reaches of the river.

Below is a list things to do in and around the Falls area:

Bungee jumping - surely bungee jumping 111 meters off the Victoria Falls Bridge has to be one of the most challenging, terrifying, crazy things to do... It’s a must do!

Micro-light, helicopter and hot air balloon flights - these activities offer a "grand stand" view of the Falls... an amazing spectacle suitable for all ages!

White water rafting - rafting trips run from both the Zimbabwe and Zambian sides, and operators on both sides are highly professional.

The Devil's Pool - the ultimate infinity pool in the world - is created each year at the fringes of Victoria Falls, when the dry season reduces water levels to create what has been likened to the ultimate infinity pool.

Less adventurous travellers can enjoy canoe trips on the Upper Zambezi, horse riding and elephant back safaris, playing golf at Elephant Hills, fishing, sunset cruises, village visits and many more.

For those wanting to experience the wildlife in the area, there are various choices, like rhino spotting at Mosi o Tunya National Park, day trips to Chobe National Park, game walks or drives.

You can arrange most of these activities direct with your lodge on arrival, but for longer excursions, we recommend you contact us before travel.
