After breakfast you will be transferred to Victoria Falls town at 10:00am. The day will start off with a guided tour of the Victoria Falls: Columns of spray can be seen from miles away as, at the height of the rainy season, more than five
hundred million cubic meters of water per minute plummet over the edge, over a width of nearly two kilometres, into a gorge over one hundred meters below.
Afterwards, you can explore the town, partake in one of the many offsite activities and/or visit historical sights, art galleries and curio markets. You can either return to the lodge with the guide for lunch and to relax before your afternoon activity or enjoy lunch at the beautiful and historically significant Victoria Falls Hotel (for your own account).

Day 3
Rise early to enjoy a sunrise game drive, where you can spot some of the game that may have eluded you the day before!

Optional activities include:
Chobe National Park Day Trip @ $350 per person
The first glimpse of the river – deep and dazzling in the sandy terrain – is always breath-taking. It appears as a swathe of brilliant, peacock blue ribbon, winding its way through the tiny town of Kasane and ensuing wilderness. Undoubtedly one of Africa’s most beautiful rivers, the Chobe supports a diversity and high concentration of wildlife. This is considered on of the best game viewing experiences in the world!
Full Day Tiger Fishing on the Zambezi River @ $500 per person
The mighty Zambezi River has become the number one destination for avid fresh water anglers to “take on” the ferocious tiger fish. From its source in Zambia to the Indian Ocean Sea, the Zambezi River spans 1 599 miles and touches the following countries: Zambia, Zimbabwe, Namibia, Mozambique and Angola. Along its course, the river evolves from a trickling spring to a massive span that has created some of the world’s most magnificent water features such as Victoria Falls, Sioma Falls and the lakes, Kariba and Cahora Bassa.
Full Day River Rafting @ $120 per person
As relaxing and enjoyable as a gentle river cruise is, there’s an ever-growing group of people who prefer the thrills and excitement of a rough and adrenaline packed white water rafting trip! Under professional guidance, novices as well as experts can experience hours of enjoyable and challenging adventures.
Day 4
Take another sunrise guided game drive or river cruise before breakfast. After breakfast, you can either relax on the deck overlooking the waterhole or visit the souvenir shop before having to pack and be ready for your transfer back to Victoria Falls airport.
