Your flight to Victoria Falls (Mosi-oa-Tunya) takes you to the Zimbabwean side of the Zambesi River and Africa’s tremendous and most famous waterfalls. Take in the aerial views of Victoria Falls from a light aeroplane and ride the rapids on a white-water rafting trip.
Explore the background of the Victoria Falls at the small museum to discover the people who lived here, the geology and formation of the falls. Immerse yourself in the local culture at the colonial Victoria Falls Hotel with Shangaan dancers or head into the malls of Victoria Falls town for crafts and Shona singing.
For an alternative view of Victoria Falls, cross the Victoria Falls Bridge into Zambia or take the plunge and bungee-jump from the bridge. Or take a safari trip to the Zambezi National Park (9km from Victoria Falls) to see grazing sable and antelope.
The people of Victoria Falls love their kapenta or mopane worm in peanut butter but also try wildebeest, antelope and alligator dishes. Drink local Zambezi or Lion beer and on special occasions try the whawha maize beer. |
