“Loved it all! 12-13 mins over the falls was priceless! (Granted latter flying out of Vic falls if you sit on right side of the plane gave you similar. But I am glad I did this helicopter tour!”
Review of Victoria Falls’ Zambezi dinner cruise, with sunset views, wildlife, a four-course meal, drinks, costs, and practical booking tips.
“We had a fantastic time on this cruise! We debated between the sunset cruise and dinner cruise and are so happy we went with the dinner. Pickup and drop off were easily coordinated by WhatsApp, the food was incredible (I recommend the ostrich steak), and the service was wonderful. We got to see so many animals: elephants crossing the river and playing on land, hippos, and crocodiles. I highly recommend Pure Africa 😊”

“I have to say the cruise staffs hadn't prepared enough! It was a raining night and rain came into the cruise. It made some tables wet. And the staff refused to block it with equipped curtain because it will block the air current! The most ridiculous reason I've ever heard!”

See Victoria Falls from Zimbabwe and Zambia on a six-hour guided tour with border help, rainforest walks, bridge views, and local shopping.
“We had a fantastic day with the teams on both sides of the border in Zimbabwe and Zambia. Our guides, Shelton in Zimbabwe and Delphister in Zambia, were both incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and insightful throughout the experience. They were very accommodating and amended the itinerary to work around us, allowing us to see and do more than originally planned. Their local knowledge and flexibility made a real difference to the day. We also wanted guidance and advice along the way, and they supported us at every stage, ensuring everything ran smoothly and stress free. A highly professional and well organised experience from start to finish. Highly recommended.”
Review of the Chobe day trip from Victoria Falls, with a river cruise, elephant sightings, lunch, game drive, border tips, and honest value advice.
“We were collected from our hotel at the nominated time by Stanford and driven to the border, viewing wildlife by the roadside along the way. Stanford was happy to stop for us to take photos and to point out animals as we travelled along. We arrived at the border and were escorted through the crossing where we then met our guide Cobra who was amazing! Our jeep safari was fantastic and we saw many animals including lions, leopards, elephants, giraffes and countless zebra and impala. Cobra was very knowledgeable and personable and helped us learn more about the National Park. Lunch which was provided was buffet style and was delicious.…”
Tackle Class IV and V Zambezi rapids near Victoria Falls with expert guides, canyon hikes, lunch, drinks, gear, and hotel transport.
“The whitewater rafting was great. JB and his crew were amazing (special shoutout to Liberty)… very safe, friendly and informative. Also incredibly patient. The climb down the gorge to put in and back up at the end is no joke. It’s a lot of climbing over rocks, steps made of branches and loose gravel. I’m in good shape and I do some hiking, but I found this very challenging, especially in water shoes. But the team was very encouraging and helpful and didn’t rush us, literally holding my hand through portions. The barbecue chicken and beer at the end of the climb were a nice payoff.”
Review of the Livingstone Island and Devil’s Pool tour from Victoria Falls, with border tips, safety advice, pricing, swimming details, and breakfast.

Spend a full day in Chobe from Victoria Falls with a game drive, river cruise, lunch, guides, and close elephant sightings.

“The food was excellent and we saw Hippos with calves and a solo large elephant. Apart from those wonderful experiences the food was really good. My wife and I had the beef but a guest near us had the Ostrich and he said that was lovely. All up a great evening for our first evening at Victoria Falls.”
