Victoria Falls

Smoke that thunders! That is what the Kolobo tribe who lived by the Victoria Falls two centuries ago once called this seventh wonder of the world. The spray can be seen from miles away. The wide basalt cliff, over which the falls thunder, transforms the Zambezi from a wide placid river into a ferocious torrent cutting through a series of dramatic gorges. A path along the edge of the surrounding rainforest provides you with unparalleled views from various special vantage points. Enjoy diverse activities, from helicopter rides to gentle boat cruises on the Zambezi.

Included activities

Sussi and Chuma: Victoria Falls tour, village tours, sundowner cruises

Explore the island while on an adventurous sunrise boat ride. Cruise through the narrow channels of the Zambezi River. Learn its evolution from a traditional African sacrificial site to a modern protected World Heritage Site. Have a packed picnic lunch as you enjoy the vast scenic views and the splendor of the Victoria Falls. Brave enough for a river swim? Take a dip into the cool waters at one of the bathing pools. Explore the Victoria Falls from the Zimbabwe side walking through vast rain forests of rich flora and fauna. Encountering elephants, impalas, giraffes, buffaloes, zebras and indigenous birds add to the exciting adventures. Take walking or biking safaris to the Nakatindi village and indulge in an array of traditional delicacies, music, dance and a rich culture.

Experience game drives and safari walks on land, while boat or mokoru (a dugout canoe) rides allow you to silently glide pass crocodiles! {Please note that due to fluctuating weather conditions and decreased rainfall, water levels at the Okavango Delta may be lower than usual at the time of your visit.

What Our Guests Say

This was our first trip with Enchanting Travels and I could not make a higher recommendation. From the time of planning to execution of our trip to Southern Africa, the service was excellent. The attention to detail of every aspect of our trip was outstanding. The trip was seamless, from transportation to accommodations. It was comforting to have a connection in Africa who met with us online prior to the trip and was available throughout our journey. The app with all of our travel plans and documents made the trip stress free. We plan to use Enchanting Travels again in the future.

We had an incredible experience with Enchanting Travels! We worked with both Alison, our travel consultant, and Cyprian, our trip coordinator. Alison did a fantastic job in catering our itinerary to meet all of our requests, and we had a wonderful trip to Namibia, Victoria Falls, Okavango Delta, and Chobe National Park. Alison and Cyprian were a wealth of knowledge and provided recommendations and insights that helped make our trip magical. We felt reassured knowing we had assistance every step of the way and they made sure our travels between 3 countries were seamless and easy. All of our hotels and lodges far exceeded expectations. They helped us take a trip of a lifetime!

Our travel coordinator, Jeniffer Korir, was fabulous with planning our trip. She listened carefully to what we were interested in and arranged travel, destinations, and activities that aligned with our interests. She did a great job matching our budget and interests to availability of activities, and the destination. She developed a thorough itinerary and advised us on all aspects of the trip down to the when and how much to tip. When our flight was canceled, Jeniffer proactively noticed it and made other arrangements, including adjusting all of our other travel plans. I would highly recommend using enchanting travels for booking once in a lifetime vacations; they are experienced with the destinations and save you lots of time with doing your own research and making your own travel plans. Plus, they are available while you were at your destination to answer questions and communicate plans. We had an amazing vacation!

We booked with Enchanting Travels because they were attentive, and took the time to understand what we wanted in a vacation! We felt confident the entire team would work as hard as the sales staff, and we were right – they did!! From the moment we made our 1st payment to the moment we walked off the plane at home, we felt confident in our decision to book with Enchanting!
