Whether it’s the feeling of the spray on your face or the usual sight of a rainbow emerging from the Falls, this will surely be a sight worth remembering. It’s often raining in the rainforest during wet season so be sure to have your poncho!

This cascading pillar of water powers its way down a 100-meter chasm, taking your breath away as you gaze in awe at its incredible strength and beauty. Victoria Falls is one of the largest and most famous waterfalls in the world, well-deserving of its nickname The Smoke that Thunders. Gain a greater understanding and appreciation of the World Heritage Site on this 2.5 hour guided tour of the falls, which includes a walking safari and information about the history and local wildlife of the area. This experience takes you through parts of the Victoria Falls Rainforest to the precipice opposite the massive cascade. From there, there are unencumbered views of the main falls. Get ready to witness the remarkable power of nature, and a spectacle you will remember for all your life.
A helicopter flight over the magnificent Victoria Falls is a once in a lifetime opportunity not to be missed. The sight of the thundering waterfall from the sky will leave you awestruck. Soar above the towering wall of mist created by the Victoria Falls, and be mesmerized as you witness the largest sheet of falling water in the World. Take a moment to appreciate this natural wonder and absorb the scenes that will not quickly fade from memory. And don't forget to take advantage of the numerous photographic opportunities you will get as you experience this helicopter flight over the Victoria Falls.

Who We Are

Our small, dedicated team work passionately to make your African travel dreams come true.

We earn commission from our suppliers and don’t add extra charges ‘on top’. It is common for our customers to actually save money by booking with us.
OUR SAFARIS
All our trips are small adventures, journeys of the soul and spirit. When traveling with us, we encourage you to leave behind all your fears, prejudices, mental barriers and expectations. Clear your mind, let go everything and be ready to be inspired. Let Africa fill your heart with all its voices, sounds, wildlife calls, scents and colors. Refrain from the desire of organizing every second of your trip. In Africa time evaporates into another dimension. It becomes a silent friend, if you manage to ignore it. Leave all schedules and programs behind and enjoy every second of your trip, whether you are photographing a hunting lion or simply waiting for your coffee to be served or for the sun to set.
For the most part, Africa is an underdeveloped country. During our trips, we try to be mindful of the fact that regardless of how cold, wet, dirty, hungry or thirsty we might be, we are still fortunate to belong to a luckier part of the planet. We also foster sentiments and acts of respect, understanding and generosity, towards the local populations. We believe in the joy of helping others, whenever possible. We welcome and seek interactions with the locals. We walk the local markets and there we buy our supplies. We welcome the noisy hordes of curious children who will surround us at every step. Bring your children and stare in awe together at a wild elephant just a few feet away. Find the joy of life in the simplest of things, where happiness comes from the inside, in a place where inner peace can still be exchanged with a smile, and a defining moment of eye contact can turn a stranger into a friend. This is Africa. Welcome!
