There was no rush and we could enjoy the walk and views of this majestic place. Helicopter ride over the falls was next level, the team there was also great. Lunch at the Look Out was also very delicious and in a beautiful setting.”

Review of the 15-minute Victoria Falls helicopter flight, with hotel pickup, Batoka Gorge views, costs, tips, and honest advice.

“We really enjoyed the view of the falls. The company did record a video of the experience which we found unnecessary. I think this should be an optional add on. We would have preferred just a nice picture in front of the helicopter. Overall a good experience!”

11.Victoria Falls Scenic Guided Tour with Sunset Boat Cruise

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 5 reviews · 5.5 hours · from $110

Tour all 16 Victoria Falls viewpoints, then cruise the Zambezi at sunset with snacks, drinks, and chances to see hippos, crocodiles, and elephants.

“Unfortunately I am not happy with this company. The trip to Victoria Falls is mainly about pick-up and drop-off to the park. The walk with the guide was boring, the guy said two or three pieces of information and otherwise followed the marked path and gave the impression of being discouraged. He only helped me take pictures but even that was so-so. Then the boat trip was ok but the whole impression was spoiled by the guy who picked me up from the ship because he demanded money for the cruise, which was included in the price I had paid in advance. The company also wrote me messages on WhatsApp…”
