Zimbabwe Day Trip Details

Your Victoria Falls day trip begins with a morning pickup at 9 am from your place of accommodation in Livingstone, Zambia for a guided tour of Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe. The transfer takes approximately 45 minutes.

Once you reach Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe, you witness one of the greatest shows on earth – the raging waters of the Zambezi River crashing into the Batoka Gorge. The experience takes you through parts of the Victoria Falls rain forest to the cliffs opposite the massive cascade. From there, you get a fantastic view of the main falls, as your guide reveals interesting facts about the wildlife, geology, and history of this famous African landmark. Get ready to witness the remarkable power of nature and a spectacle that you will remember for a lifetime. Please remember to bring cash to pay the park entrance fee.

At around 13:00, your local guide takes you to The Lookout Café, where lunch is provided with a spectacular view. This eatery is perched 120 meters above the turbulent rapids of the Zambezi River, offering what many consider to be the best view in Victoria Falls. At the restaurant, you’re able to select your lunch from a tasty à la carte menu as you relax and take in the amazing views. Alcoholic drinks as well as non-alcoholic drinks can be purchased from the well-stocked cash bar.

After lunch, we make your way to the local craft market. Here, you’re able to view and purchase gifts and souvenirs, such as skillfully carved wooden articles in the form of ornaments, dishes and bowls, as well as many other attractive and useful objects. See the colourful, dyed, and painted tablecloths, aprons, cushion covers, and wall-hangings. Enjoy life-sized metal sculpted wild animals. There are also smaller painted metal lifelike birds and animals, which are often used as features in gardens.

Finally, at about 15:00, you’re transferred back to Livingstone in Zambia after your Victoria Falls day trip.
