Activity Adventures
Test Devil's Pool on the very edge of the Falls during dry season and feel the power of the water surging over the edge of the Falls. The brave will attempt the bunji jump off the Victoria Falls bridge or the gorge swing across the river; 1000's of guests raft the gorge beneath the Falls.
Comprehensive notes about white water rafting
Africa is outdoor land, rivalled only by New Zealand and the USA in variety of activities. Ballooning across the Serengeti or at dawn above the Sossusvlei dunes is a lifetime experience. Dune boarding and quad biking in Nambia can be experienced by any age group while a 7 day cycling trip from the Nyika Plateau to Lake Malawi is possibly better left to the more adventurous type!
