Victoria Falls - Activities
Livingstone, Zambia is the hot-spot of activity and tourism, offering an array of Adventure options. Here are some activities from adrenalin-packed adventure, the astonishing Zambezi sunsets, to the unparallel beauty of the real Africa...
Mosi-Oa-Tunya National Park, Game Drives/Safaris:
See the ONLY 5 white rhinos in Zambia plus giraffe, elephant, hippos, crocs, buffalo, zebra, wildebeest, warthog, antelope and many species of birds. This is also the point of the first European settlement north of the Zambezi. Three hours is spent cruising around the park, sipping soft drinks and getting super close to some of the most amazing creatures on earth!
Cultural History Tours:
Livingstone has a very rich cultural heritage. To this day, traditional chiefs still rule rural Zambia. This makes a visit to a tribal village all the more interesting. As a colonial town Livingstone has a fascinating story to tell as one of the first white settlements and as a capital for nearly 30 years. The in the colonial era built Livingstone Museum houses four galleries permanently displaying:
Pre-History.
White Water Rafting:
There is no denying it - the Zambezi provides the best rafting trip on the planet! The mighty Slambezi is one of the reasons that so many of us choose to make Livingstone our home away from home. You'll crash through some of the biggest commercially run rapids in the world (grades 3-5) while taking in the breathtaking scenery of the Batoka Gorge.

White Water Rafting Multi-day Trip:
If you are keen for the ultimate thrill then a multi-day trip along the Zambezi is it! After a full day of rafting, you'll set up camp in the Batoka Gorge and listen as the wildlife, gaze into the campfire and a down a few cold drinks before you settle in for the night. Rise to a big breakfast, and the crazy adventure starts again! Perfect for a group (4+ persons) travelling together.

BUNGI Jumping:
The Victoria Falls Bungi Bridge is 111 metres of pure African adrenaline and still one of the highest Bungi bridges in world! The bridge itself forms the border between Zimbabwe and Zambia and has its own little piece of history for being a major part of Rhodes' Cape to Cairo railway. After screaming, crying, praying and thanking God that the elastic is still tied to your ankles, you'll bounce around to the sites of Victoria Falls and the Batoka Gorge.

River Boarding/Boogie Boarding:
For those of you wanting to catch the perfect wave that never breaks, this is the best! Begin your day by grabbing a board, slapping on some fins and learning some tricks with your qualified guide before heading down into some HUGE walls of water. This can be combined with a rafting trip. No experience necessary but if you're a surfer, this is a must!
Tandem Kayaking:
Maximum weight 95kg. If you aren't yet comfortable to challenge the Zambezi on your own, then this is the next best thing! Start your day by learning to paddle and roll while your personal guide is always right behind. You'll brave the river along with the daily rafting trip so all meals, drinks etc. - are included.

Kayaking:
Come and play with World-class international freestyle paddlers as they guide you on your kayak trip of a lifetime. Beginner, intermediate, advanced and freestyle kayaking courses available as well as full day and multi day trips. All of this on one of the world's best kayak rivers - come and see why so many of the best international kayakers like to consider the Zambezi to be home! Big rapids, flat pools, warm water, sunshine!
Jet Boating:
Livingstone's newest thrill! Jump in the NZ built, specially designed boat and get up to speeds of almost 90 km per hour! Sounds impressive you say… now imagine doing that for 40 minutes while buzzing inches away from rocks and doing full 360 degree spins! The choice is yours to either drive out through the picturesque villages of Mukuni and Machenge or helicopter out and over the Victoria Falls.
Abseiling/Gorge Swing:
This is definitely not for the faint-hearted! Your morning commences with the High wire (a zip line) across the width of the Batoka Gorge. You then learn the basics of abseiling/rap jumping down a 100m cliff face … and then after lunch, the GORGE SWING (there is only a few other places in the world where you can do this!). All activities can be done as many times as you wish in the day.
Canoeing:
Get back to nature and experience the upper Zambezi River in two person canoes. Great photo opportunities as you sneak up on all of the wildlife and birds that the Zambezi River has on offer. Half day, Full day and multi trips available...
River Cruise:
Discover why an African Sunset has become the source of legends! The cruise boats, ranging from Pontoon-style party villas to multi-tiered luxury, cruise up the Zambezi River between the Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park (Zambia) and the Zambezi National Park (Zimbabwe) where hippos and crocodiles are plenty. Often there are sightings of giraffe, elephant, rhino, zebra and various antelope. Cruises range from providing snacks on the boat to full barbecue dinners and all you can drink. Be sure to bring your camera!

Micro-lighting:
Without a doubt, the best way to view the Victoria Falls from the air! A micro light has been described as "a bike with wings" and certainly provides for superb uninterrupted views. It's just you and the pilot up there with a camera attached to the wing (awesome photos!). 15 or 30 minute flights.
