Itinerary
Day 1 - Victoria Falls Sunset Cruise
Welcome to Victoria Falls, southern Africa's adventure capital. At the airport, you will be met and transferred to your accommodation. This afternoon, relax on a sunset cruise along the mighty Zambezi River. Enjoy snacks and a drink or two as you wind down the river.
Tour Style: This tour can depart any day and is made up of a selection of excursions and activities, with transportation and accommodation. You will have different local guides for each excursion. All excursions and transfers are on a shared basis, meaning you will be joined by other travellers.
Day 2 - Discovering Vic Falls
Today is all about Victoria Falls, one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World. First, enjoy a 12-13 minute helicopter ride over the falls and along the Zambezi, for a birds-eye view of “Mosi oa Tunya” (the smoke that thunders). Then visit the falls on foot, escorted by a knowledgeable local guide who can tell you more about this incredible waterfall. And there's a Historical Bridge tour to Victoria Falls Bridge, which is almost as famous as the falls themselves and boasts amazing views of the falls, rapids and Batoka Gorge.
Please note: The Historical Bridge Tour is excluded from 2027 onwards but will be available to book as an optional activity (subject to availability).
Day 3 - Chobe National Park Safari
After breakfast this morning travel across the border into Botswana to spend the day exploring Chobe National Park.
Botswana's premier national park is home to all of the famous Big Five and much more wildlife besides. In the morning enjoy a game viewing cruise on the Chobe River, which famously switches its direction of flow in the wet season, from east to west. Then embark on an afternoon game drive through the park in search of more wildlife, before returning to Victoria Falls for the evening.
Days 4-6 - Hwange National Park
At 09.30am this morning, transfer from Victoria Falls Town to Hwange National Park, approximately two hours away.
Hwange is Zimbabwe’s largest national park and one of Africa’s leading wildlife areas, known for its large herds of elephant, buffalo and zebra, as well as a high concentration of giraffe. The park is also home to predators, endangered species and varied birdlife, with fewer visitors allowing for a quieter safari experience.
On arrival at the lodge, complete check-in procedures before enjoying lunch, time permitting, followed by an afternoon game activity and dinner at the lodge.
During your 3-night stay, enjoy the safari activities available at the lodge, including one 3-hour game drive each day.
You will also have the opportunity to book additional optional activities, including a night drive, a village tour, a walking safari tour and a visit to the Painted Dog Conservation.
Please note: Optional activities are not included and payable locally.
Day 7 - Hwange National Park to Victoria Falls
After breakfast, check out and transfer from Hwange Safari Lodge to Victoria Falls Airport at 09.00, or Victoria Falls Town at 12.30.
