With private licensed guides and an intentionally flexible schedule, your days are shaped around wildlife encounters, time in the bush and the rhythms of the wilderness. There is no fixed day-by-day itinerary, allowing each day to unfold according to wildlife movements, conditions and your preferences.

  • Big Five Wildlife Viewing and hunting
  • Walking Safari
  • Night Drives
  • 24/7 driver, and 2 professional licensed game rangers

A Flexible Wilderness Experience — Rather than following a rigid itinerary, your stay is tailored around the conditions and opportunities of the reserve. Guests wishing to visit Victoria Falls independently can arrange their own excursion during their stay.

Is Victoria Falls safe for tourists?

Yes, Victoria Falls is considered one of the safest tourist destinations in Southern Africa. However, guests are advised to follow their guide’s instructions at all times, especially near wildlife and designated viewpoints.

Are park entry fees included in the tour package?

No. Entry fees for the Victoria Falls Rainforest and Chobe National Park are not included and must be paid directly at the respective parks. They sometimes ask individuals to account for their own fees, that is why we do not handle park fees in the package.

Is the Falls tour suitable for guests with limited mobility?

The rainforest pathways are paved but may be wet and uneven due to waterfall spray. Guests with limited mobility can still enjoy certain viewpoints, although full access to all paths may be challenging.

Are there international-standard medical facilities available in Victoria Falls?

Yes. Victoria Falls has reputable private medical facilities that cater to international travellers and operate in line with global healthcare standards, including: The Health Bridge Private Hospital – A modern private hospital offering emergency care and general medical services for tourists. 24Hrs Clinic – A 24-hour medical clinic providing primary and urgent care services.

What happens in the event of a medical emergency?

Guests can be transferred to local private clinics in Victoria Falls for immediate care. In more serious cases, medical evacuation to advanced facilities in major cities can be arranged through travel insurance providers.

How should I carry money when visiting Victoria Falls?

While many hotels and restaurants accept card payments, swipe machines can occasionally be offline due to connectivity issues. It is recommended that guests carry some cash (preferably USD) for park fees, curios, local markets, and small purchases.

Are card payments widely accepted?

Most established tourism service providers accept Visa and Mastercard. However, smaller vendors such as craft markets and independent activity providers may operate on a cash-only basis.

What if I prefer not to travel with large amounts of cash?

Guests may use secure international money transfer services such as WorldRemit or Mukuru to send money to themselves for collection at designated outlets within Victoria Falls.

Are ATMs available in Victoria Falls?

Yes, ATMs are available in town, but cash availability may vary. It is advisable not to rely solely on ATM withdrawals during your stay.

Can I use mobile money services locally?

Mobile payment options may be available in some locations, but are not guaranteed for all tourism-related payments.
