Day by day plan
- Day 1
Nairobi to Victoria Falls
You fly from JKIA to Victoria Falls, usually through Johannesburg or Addis Ababa. The journey takes 8 to 12 hours depending on the connection. A driver meets you at the airport and takes you to your lodge, about 20 minutes away. Check in and have dinner. You can already hear the falls on a quiet night. Victoria Falls packages from Nairobi start with a quiet first night.
- Day 2
Guided walk at the falls and sunset cruise
After breakfast a guide takes you into the Victoria Falls National Park. You walk the rim path past 16 viewpoints, including the Devil’s Cataract and the Main Falls. Bring a rain poncho, because the spray soaks you in the high water months. In the late afternoon you board a boat for a sunset cruise with hippos, birds and cold drinks.
- Day 3
Free day for adventure
Pick your own day. Fly over the falls in a helicopter for about 12 to 15 minutes. Raft the rapids below the falls in the low water season. Visit Chobe National Park on a day trip, with a river cruise and a game drive. Or walk across the old bridge to the Zambia side. We quote every option separately.
- Day 4
Last view and flight home
Have a slow breakfast and one last walk at the falls if your flight is late. Your transfer takes you to the airport. You connect through Johannesburg or Addis Ababa and land in Nairobi the same day or the next, depending on the schedule. Ask us about adding Cape Town to your next trip.

Zambia or Zimbabwe: Which Side Is Better?
Zimbabwe gives you the best view of the whole falls, because you face the main wall from the rim path. Zambia gets you close to the edge, with the Knife Edge Bridge and the Devil’s Pool in the low water months. Many guests do both on a day pass.
We base most Victoria Falls packages from Nairobi on the Zimbabwe side, because the town has more lodges and the airport is close. We can switch you to Livingstone on request.
Lodge Tiers at Victoria Falls
All tiers include breakfast. The tier changes the setting and the service more than the tours.
- 3 star: simple lodge in town, a pool and a short ride to the park
- 4 star: riverside lodge with a deck and a sunset view over the Zambezi
- 5 star: a colonial hotel near the falls or a luxury tented camp upriver
- Upgrade to a river view room for about KES 6,000 to 18,000 more per person
