Aerial adventures over Victoria Falls

aircraft  

Experience a bird's eye view of the Victoria Falls on a thrilling flight over the Falls and the Zambezi River in a helicopter, microlight or fixed wing light aircraft. 

The helicopter is designed so all passengers have a good view and every seat in the fixed wing is a window seat.

The micro light has an open cockpit for the ultimate ride with the wind in your face. 15 minute flights (25 minute in fixed wing) also go downstream over the Batoka Gorge and upstream over the Mosi-Oa-Tunya National Park, an opportunity to see game in the park below.

"Flight of the Angels"

This is a flight in a fixed wing Cessna 206 over Victoria Falls.  Each seat in the aircraft is next to a window and offers unsurpassed views of the spectacular scenery below.  Flights range in duration from 25 to 40 minutes and follow the same course as the microlight flip.  The aircraft has a capacity for five passengers and is available for charter.

Tethered Balloon over Victoria Falls

Africa's first static helium balloon in Victoria Falls offers a 120 metre "grand stand" view of the Falls.  The balloon is tethered by cable to the ground, released as you rise and retrieved by winch for the slow descent.  This is a silent spectacle suitable for all ages accommodating up to 30 pax at a time. 

The standard ride lasts 15 minutes and takes place at any time of the day. Sunrise and sunset rides last for approximately 30 minutes.  An alternative is the "Stargazer" trip run at 20:00 in the evening - full moon rides are particularly recommended and include champagne and soft drinks.

Balloon is temporarily suspended....
