Tour Description(Itinerary)

Arriving at Victoria Falls

This morning you check in at OR Tambo International Airport in Johannesburg, or Cape Town International Airport in Cape Town for your scheduled flight to Livingstone in Zambia.

Your Guide will meet you after you have completed the immigration formalities at the Harry Mwanga Nkumbula International Airport in Livingstone and he will then give you a guided tour through the town of Livingstone to the Avani Victoria Falls Resort where you will check in to your room.

Enjoy a few hours exploring the resort this evening and discover the wild animals that roam freely around the grounds before you enjoy dinner at the poolside.

As a resident at the Avani Victoria Falls Resort you have direct access to Victoria Falls through a private entrance to the park. You may visit the spectacular waterfall several times to get the best possible views at different times of the day.

Victoria Falls

You have direct access to Victoria Falls, so you may want to view the Falls in the best light for photography during the Golden Hour early in the morning after sunrise. Return to the hotel for a leisurely breakfast buffet in the restaurant, which opens onto the pool deck.

After breakfast, your Guide will meet you at reception and take you on a short walk to the Mighty Victoria Falls. He will conduct a thorough guided tour commencing above the waterfall and then circling around to get a view of the Falls from the other side of the gorge, and here you will stand a good chance of being thoroughly drenched by the falling spray from the cascading water.

You will return to the hotel before lunchtime, and you have the afternoon to yourself to relax by the poolside while the Zebra come to graze on the lawns close by. There are many other activities to consider, such as cultural trips or shopping in the local markets, which may be booked directly at the activities desk at the hotel reception.

Cape Town

This morning you may consider an optional twenty-two-minute helicopter flight over the mighty Victoria Falls and the Batoka Gorge. Having walked around the Victoria Falls on the Zambian side yesterday morning, you can now view the entire width of the spectacular waterfall from the air. Your pilot will then take you down the Batoka Gorge down river from the Victoria Falls so you can view the former positions of the waterfall over the centuries.

During the morning you may explore the Avani Victoria Falls Resort, relax, enjoy the facilities and possibly have a swim. Lunch is served at the pool deck where you can also listen to the local musicians entertaining you while you dine.

At around 16h00 you will meet your guide in the reception area and transfer to the Zambezi Waterfront where the majestic vessels, the African Queen and the African Princess are moored. Board your vessel for a relaxing cruise up the Zambezi River to view the magnificent sunset while sipping cocktails in true colonial style.

After the vessel has docked a little after sunset, your guide will transfer you back to your hotel for a relaxing evening with dinner served in the restaurant overlooking the freestyle form swimming pool.

Departure day

You can have a leisurely start this morning and have breakfast before you pack up in preparation to check out of the hotel. Your Guide will be ready at reception at 09h30 for your transfer back to the airport in Livingstone .

The extension tour ends on your arrival at OR Tambo International Airport after your scheduled flight from Livingstone.
