About this experience
After a gentle take off from the helipad, you will fly out over The Falls where we will provide you with the most incredible viewing and photographic opportunity of this World Heritage Site. Continuing your flight downstream over the Batoka Gorge, experience the natural beauty of this aweinspiring dramatic feature following the mighty Zambezi as it carves its way between steep cliffs. As we head back from the Batoka Gorges, taking a last glimpse at The Falls, we fly over the long island on the upper Zambezi towards the National Park, home to a wide variety of wildlife species. This is an amazing opportunity to view game from the air in this beautiful National Park as well as along the banks of the Upper Zambezi River. There is an opportunity of spotting Elephants, Hippo , Crocodiles , Buffalo , Giraffes , Kudu and many more as we head back to the helipad. This is an amazing 3-in-1 flight, an experience of a lifetime.
