What To Expect

Victoria Falls

The outstanding beauty of the Victoria falls can be captured from all angles during the 15 minutes scenic flight or the 25 minutes game flight. Our helicopter ride begins with a gentle take-off from our helipad at Kazangula airstrip along the Victoria Falls to Kazangula highway and provides the most incredible views and photographs of Victoria Falls. We offer 2 options of helicopter scenic flights over the Victoria Falls – the 15 Minutes Scenic Flight and the 25 Minutes Game Flight. You’ll witness the natural beauty of the Batoka Gorge on the Zambezi River as you fly downriver following this world heritage site’s mighty Zambezi as it carves a path through steep cliffs. We’ll be flying over long island on the upper Zambezi upstream from the falls, towards the Zambezi National Park, home to a wide variety of wildlife. This is a wonderful opportunity to see wildlife such as elephants, hippos, crocodiles from the air, as well as up and down the river.

The ride itself was fantastic. The only reason I didn’t give a 5 is that I listed my hotel being in Livingstone, Zambia, and it was confirmed. I was failed to be notified I needed to meet the driver at the border that they wouldn’t come to my hotel. I didn’t find out this information until the day before when I called them to see what the pick up time was. This information should be on the site or in the confirmation email. Everyone was cordial and helpful.
Fantastic experience, can see the extent of the falls

What a beautiful experience. I booked it a couple of hours before on the same day. They reached out to me and everything was so easy. For those who are staying in Zambia side, they can arrange for you to be taken to the Zimbabwe border for an extra fee and then, they pick you up from the other side take you to the helicopter point (not on the description but was easy to sort out). The pilot was amazing, 20 years of experience. The video they make for you is nice! Truly breathtaking experience.
