Scenic Tours
Victoria Falls is one of the 7 natural wonders of the world, and its topography includes 7 principal gorges. The gorges are an amazing illustration of river capture and the erosive forces of the water, which continue to sculpt the hard basalts. Named as the First, Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth gorges, we have The Songwe Gorge (sixth) named after the Songwe River, and the gorge below Songwe also known as The Batoka Gorge (seventh).
How can one enjoy so many zigzagging series of gorges in one go? They can do so by Helicopter or Micro Flights (small aircraft) over the waterfalls, Zambezi River Cruises, Steam Train Tours, and others like the Victoria Falls Bamba Tram, Guided Bike Tours, Historical Bridge Tour & The Lunar Rainbow Tour.
