What could be more thrilling than flying over the majestic Victoria Falls?

Experience the true majesty of nature as you fly by helicopter over the largest waterfall in the world, the awe-inspiring Victoria Falls located on the Zambezi River between Zambia and Zimbabwe!

One of the World’s Seven Natural Wonders, Victoria Falls is like nowhere else on earth! 1,708 metres wide and 108 metres high, the falls are perpetually covered in shining rainbows and bordered by lush, wild landscape. The spray from the falls alone reaches higher than the Empire State Building and is visible from up to 50 km away – needless to say, the best way to experience it in all its glory is by flying high over Victoria Falls! The Victoria Falls National Park borders the falls on the Zimbabwe side and as you fly over it you will get incredible views of dense rainforest nourished from the waterfall spray. Further along the falls, in the Zambezi National Park, the vegetation will turn into grassland where you may be able to spot wild animals such as buffalo, elephant, leopard, lion, rhino, zebra, giraffe and more from your bird’s eye vantage point in the helicopter! Taking in the diversity of flora, fauna, and all around natural splendour that Victoria Falls offers as you fly over the Zambezi River by helicopter, is a sight and experience that will stay with you forever!

Flight of Angels – Lasting around 12 minutes, this flight will centre around the Victoria Falls itself as the pilot will fly circuits over the Falls in both directions to give you the best viewing and photographic opportunities. To end the helicopter ride, the flight will head back up river and over the Zambezi National Park.

Zambezi Spectacular – A longer and more in-depth flight lasting 25 minutes, the helicopter ride over Victoria Falls will not only take you over the Falls, but will continue downstream over and around the Batoka Gorge and along the Zambezi River’s dramatic path through the cliffside. Coming back up the river, you will get to see Victoria Falls another time and then fly over Zambezi National Park where you may spot elephant, hippo, crocodile, giraffe, and many other incredible wildlife!

Not only will your helicopter ride over Victoria Falls be the thrill of a lifetime, but you can also rest assured of your safety. The helicopters used by Adventure Zone Victoria Falls are Bell helicopters, which are the recognized world leaders in the helicopter industry and their aircrafts are noted for their reliability. The two helicopters available to fly are the Bell 206 Long Ranger with a capacity for 6 passengers, or the Bell Jet Ranger with a capacity for 4 passengers. These helicopters are maintained to the highest industry standards so that you can sit back, relax, and enjoy the breathtaking views of Victoria Falls and the Zambezi River during your helicopter ride.
