Victoria Falls Helicopter Flight and Aerial Safari
Bring your core identification, including your passport, driver's license, and any required visas or entry permits. It is also helpful to carry financial backups such as a primary credit card, a backup debit card, and a small amount of local currency cash.
Keep physical copies of important documents, including your passport, hotel bookings, and travel insurance policy, in case your phone battery dies.
At check-in, you will be weighed to calculate the aircraft's payload, assigned your seat, and given a mandatory safety and pilot briefing.
You then board the aircraft and take off.
After a smooth landing, you can view and purchase professionally captured high-definition video files of your flight before being transferred back to your hotel.
Duration: 25 minutes.
Focus: waterfalls, dramatic geological landscapes, and low-level wildlife tracking.
Falls Coverage - 12 mins: The flight begins with the same comprehensive figure-8 loops over the main Victoria Falls structure as the short flight.
Gorge Exploration - 6 mins: Instead of turning back, the pilot flies deep down into the Batoka Gorge. You glide lower between the steep cliffs, tracking the raging whitewater rapids of the river below.
Zambezi National Park Safari - 8 mins: The aircraft climbs back up and heads upstream over Long Island and the dense brush of Zambezi National Park. The pilot drops down to tree-top level to help you spot big game, including herds of elephants, buffalo, hippos, and giraffes.
Final Approach - 2 mins: A final scenic loop brings you directly back to the helipad.
