Introduction:
Victoria Falls, one of the most spectacular natural wonders in the world, is a breathtaking cascade located on the Zambezi River at the border between Zambia and Zimbabwe. Known locally as “Mosi-oa-Tunya,” which translates to “The Smoke that Thunders,” Victoria Falls lives up to its name with its immense power and beauty. The falls span nearly 1.7 kilometers (1 mile) wide and plunge over 100 meters (328 feet) into the gorge below, creating a mesmerizing curtain of mist and spray that can be seen and heard from miles away. In this package we will give you a true Victoria Falls safari experience.
Join us for a trip to Zimbabwe to experience a Victoria Falls safari. While we are there we will take you around the national Zimbabwean parks. Camp at different campsites and embark on guided game drives to see the game that Zimbabwe has to offer. Explore camps like Hwange Main Camp, Robin’s camp and more. At night come back to delicious food already prepared by our chef.
