Day 1-2
Livingstone
Livingstone
The group will meet at Livingstone Victoria Falls Waterfront, in Zambia, at 2:00 pm. Here we have 2 days to explore Victoria Falls, a Natural Wonder of the World, plunging into the Zambezi Gorge. Adventure activities abound, white water rafting on the mighty Zambezi, or a 111m bungee jump (at your own expense).
Note that breakfast on day 2 is the only included meal on the first two days of the tour. An essential part of your safari is some participation. From carrying your own bag to cleaning your window and packing the truck in the morning—it’s all part of your adventure and when everyone puts in a little effort the trip will run smoothly. Where the tour leaders provide meals, we ask that clients help (on rotation) with washing up.
