About this experience
Don’t expect a “normal” tour of the Victoria Falls Zimbabwean side! This unique Walking Tour is the only guided tour that includes a Wildlife Safari by our licensed local guides before entering the Victoria Falls and nobody else does that.
What i do is this, i take you save thru the Bush in order to go to the entrance of the Falls on the Zim side. In this area wildlife spottings are very common but yet not guaranteed. Nevertheless its only with Savannah Adventures, that offers this one of a kind added on feature , rather than just see the mighty Victoria Falls on the Zimbabwean side.National Park Fee depends on Nationality and is charged upon entering the park
