Viewing the falls

When you visit the Victoria Falls Activities, you obviously want to visit them. So we recommend that as soon as you get off the taxi and check-in into a hotel, immediately go and visit the falls. It completely refreshes the body from all the tiring travel to reach here. If you stay at Livingstone (Zambia), minibuses and shared taxis regularly operate in the route to the falls. In case if you stay in Victoria Falls (Zimbabwe), you can simply walk down to the entrance of park from the town. You will find well-marked paths and several viewing points. There’s no need for a guide for this, so you can save money there. Don’t forget to get the raincoat by the way to save yourself from the splashes of water.

Bungee Jumping

One of the main highlights and reason for people to visit the falls is to bungee jump off the Victoria Falls Bridge, especially for the adrenaline junkies. The jumps cost almost $100 and can be arranged through moth Zimbabwe and Zambia hotels as well as from any local travel agency. You can read more about my jump here.

Jet Boating

A jet boat ride makes you experience the Victoria Falls from the below. The very scenic and fast ride would take you to the "boiling pot" located at the foot of the falls, along with some spine-tingling turns en route. The Regal Tours & Safaris operate the fastest boat.

White-water rafting

To raft down the rapids of Zambezi River can turn out to be an incredible adventure for you. These are Grade 5 rapids, so do not expect to flow down the river like the lazy river at many waterparks. Prepare to get wet and work hard in order to stay upright. Trips usually involve lunch at a beautiful spot besides the river and conclude with a chilled beer once you have climbed back up the gorge.

Sundowner cruise

Sunset cruises are in fact quite popular in this part of world. Also, one could take pleasure in a beverage while watching the hippos cavort in Zambezi under a magnificent sunset. Cruises could be organized through several travel agencies located around the town in both Livingstone &Victoria Falls. Ilala Lodge's Ra-Ikane is my favourite from Zimbabwe side. A truly unique cruising experience along with some superb food. I really liked the Lady Livingstone on the Zambia side. For less of a sunset cruise, more of a booze cruise, it’s better to go for the larger, cheaper boats.
