It is important that you let us know your flight details beforehand, as the collection time will depend on the arrival time of your flight. At 15h30, you will meet with your driver-guide for a pick-up to the sunset cruise. On this cruise, you will sail up the mighty Zambezi River as the sun goes down, so you can immerse yourself in the natural delights of the golden Zimbabwean sunset.

Day 2: Guided Game Drive and Victoria Falls Guided Walking Tour
The pick-up time will be at 06h30, from where you will join Cuckoo Safaris for a morning game drive. You will capture the essence of the African bush at its best, in the age-old tradition of game driving. An open, well-kitted four-wheel-drive vehicle will take you on a meander along the shores of a scenic lake, through basalt plains to teak forests and Kalahari sands within Victoria Falls Game Reserve.
After the game drive, you will have a guided tour of the falls. The pick-up time will be at 14h00. Victoria Falls is one of the most compelling sites in the world. The cascading column of sheer energy powers its way down a 100-meter chasm, taking your breath away as you gaze in awe, mesmerized by its strength and incredible beauty.
