-
A 2-hour guided tour of Victoria Falls, where you’ll see the falls up close from stunning viewpoints. Your guide will offer a brief history of the falls and point out interesting details on the local flora and fauna. Don’t forget your camera!
Join a late-afternoon cruise to watch the sky streak with vibrant colours as the sun sets over the Zambezi, with the chance to encounter hippo, crocodile, and elephant on your route. A selection of drinks and snacks is served on board. For an extra-special evening, it’s also possible to book an open-air gourmet dinner cruise.
Victoria Falls is an adventure-seeker’s paradise with a seemingly endless supply of adrenaline-fuelled activities. Try the 70-metre free-fall gorge swing, zip-lining, bungee jumping, or white-water rafting on world-famous rapids surrounded by the Batoka Gorge.
This unique canopy tour offers a stunning aerial perspective of the rainforest. Suspended high above the forest floor, a series of zip lines and suspension bridges takes you through the trees, with panoramic views and opportunities to learn about the flora and fauna of the region.
In perhaps the most exciting way to see the Falls, you can choose between 15-, 25-, and 30-minute scenic helicopter flights, taking in the dramatic spray, with views of the Zambezi River. Depending on your route, you might also see the Batoka Gorge and the wildlife along the riverbanks.
Head out on foot into Zambezi National Park, just a 5-minute drive from Victoria Falls town. Led by an expert guide, these walks allow you to focus on the intricate details of the bush, from tracking big game and identifying rare bird species to learning about indigenous plant life.

Guests can dine at the on-site restaurant or opt to swap a meal for breakfast at the nearby Lookout Café, also by Wild Horizons, which offers utterly mesmerising views right from the edge of the Batoka Gorge. Those seeking privacy or a quiet post-travel bite to eat can also request in-room dining. The lodge features plenty of outdoor space for reclining on a sunlounger or enjoying drinks overlooking the lawns. There are two swimming pools and an on-site spa for massages and beauty treatments. Business travellers are catered to with a fully equipped conference centre, and the 24/7 concierge service means round-the-clock support. A complimentary hourly shuttle runs into town, running between 8am and 5pm, further cementing the lodge’s place as a convenient, well-located base to explore the area.
