Tour Description
On your arrival at OR Tambo International Airport you will connect straight through to the regional flight to Victoria Falls.
You arrive at the Victoria Falls International Airport and you will be met by your guide who will be responsible to look after you for your included excursions while in Victoria Falls. When you arrive at the hotel you may check in to your rooms and then you have an hour or two to explore the grounds before your guide comes to pick you up for the short transfer to the boat, the Malachite.

Your guide will meet you after breakfast and take you through the town center to the entrance of the Victoria Falls World Heritage Site.

After lunch, you have a few hours to explore the quaint little town of Victoria Falls and wander around the craft markets before heading back to your hotel to freshen up for dinner.
