iNFORMATION ON OTHER VICTORIA FALLS ACTIVITIES:

WHITE WATER RAFTING
Whitewater rafting through the gorges below the Falls is said to be the best one day
rafting adventure in the world due to the many rapids in a short stretch of river.
Spectacular scenery, sunshine, warm water and grade 4 and 5 rapids all make this a
day to remember. Clients should be fit as there is a climb down the gorge to get into
the water and a seriously strenuous hike out of the gorge at the end of the day. Full or
half day options are available.


CHOBE DAY EXCURSION
Chobe National Park is only 90 kms from Victoria Falls by road. Your safari combines
game viewing on the river with a 4x4 experience in the Chobe National Park renowned
for its abundance and variety of wildlife.

ZAMBEZI SUNDOWNER CRUISE
