24 Hours in Victoria Falls: What to do?
As one of the Natural Wonders in Africa, Victoria Falls is a major destination. As a result there are a lot of activities for tourists. But with only 24 hours to spend, what are the must do activities and how do you decide? This is the challenge we faced and of course, there's a back story.....
My cousin and I recently spent 24 hours visiting Victoria Falls. It was an impromptu trip. We decided we wanted to go Wednesday afternoon and booked tickets with Air Zimbabwe for Thursday morning. I normally aim to plan trips in advance, providing enough time to research and prepare. However, when presented with an amazing opportunity, one has to cease the moment.
Here is what we did with our time:
1.) Walking the National Park: Beginning from Point 1 and ending at Point 15
2.) Zip Lining across the Gorges: An amazing and beautiful experience
3.) Sunset Cruise on the Upper Zambezi River: A very scenic and relaxing experience
4.) The BOMA Experience: Wonderful food (including Vegetarian options), dancing, and great atmosphere
5.) Exploring and relaxing poolside at the beautiful Elephant Hills Resort
What will be on the agenda for the next trip?
Helicopter Flight
Elephant Safari
Elephant's Walk and Artist Village
