The experience

The tour starts with an 8am pickup from your lodge or hotel on either the Zimbabwe or Zambia side. You'll walk into Victoria Falls National Park from your starting side, spending about two hours taking in the falls and the spray before moving to the other country's vantage point for another two hours of viewing. The sequence lets you see how the falls look from each perspective (the mist, the gorge, the sheer scale of the water) without the rush of fitting it into a single afternoon.

After the two sides, you'll take a 15-minute helicopter flight over the falls and the park, which gives you the aerial view that ground level cannot match. The flight is included in the tour price. Back on the ground, you'll visit the Government Museum and take a city tour that includes the Big Tree, a local landmark. Lunch happens around midday at either the Lookout Cafe or Africa Royale, depending on which side you're on. Shopping time is built in before the 2:30pm return to your hotel or lodge.

Two guides stay with you throughout both days, so there's always someone who knows the route and can answer questions. Bottled water is provided. The tour runs seven hours of active time across the two days, which means you're not racing through the falls or sitting idle between stops.

Top questions

Can children come?

Yes. Ticket types: Youth (9 to 10 years); Child (4 to 8 years); Infant (under 4).

What's the difference between seeing Victoria Falls from the Zimbabwe side versus the Zambia side?

The Zimbabwe side of Victoria Falls National Park offers views of the main curtain of water and the gorge below, while the Zambia side at Mosi oa Tunya National Park gives you a closer, more frontal perspective of the falls. This tour takes you to both so you experience the full scale and different angles of the same natural wonder.

How much time do I actually spend at the falls on each side?

You'll spend roughly two hours at the falls on each side, giving you time to walk the viewpoints, feel the mist, and take photographs without feeling rushed through either location.

Is the helicopter flight included in the tour price, or is that an add-on?

The 15-minute helicopter flight over the falls and Victoria Falls National Park is included in the tour. It happens after you've walked both sides and gives you an aerial perspective of the gorge and the water's full span.

What happens if I'm staying in Livingstone but want to do this tour?

Pickups are available from lodges and hotels on both sides of the border. If you're based in Livingstone, Zambia, the tour will collect you from your accommodation and take you through both the Zambia and Zimbabwe sides before returning you at the end of the day.

Do I need to arrange my own entry to the national parks?

Victoria Falls National Park and Mosi oa Tunya National Park entry fees are not included in the tour price, so you'll pay those separately at the gate. Your guide will help you through the process, but budget for both park fees when you book.
