2.Zip Line from the Victoria Falls Bridge

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 33 reviews · 10 days · from $41Best value

You will zip 425 meters from the Zambian edge of Victoria Falls Bridge to Zimbabwe, 120 meters above the Batoka Gorge. Shearwater Victoria Falls supplies the harness and safety gear, while English-speaking guides handle the launch and landing. The ride takes about an hour from registration to return, with tandem riding possible.

“The activity was great but not how I wanted it to be. I booked two tickets for me and my friend but when we arrived, they said it was tandem, but it didn’t say anything about that during booking and confirmation, I didn’t want to share the ride with my friend but we were forced to, and due to costs, we couldn’t add more money to do solo. Please clarify that on the booking site to avoid disappointment of your customers.”

6.Adrenaline High Wire Package (Zimbabwe)

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 4 reviews · from $158Top rated

From Victoria Falls Town, Wild Horizons takes you to a high-wire course above the Zambezi Gorge. The package includes a flying fox, zip line, and gorge swing, with safety instruction from trained guides. Children under 16 can usually join, and smaller children may use a double harness with an adult.

“I bought the "High Adrenaline" package, so did all three: the flying fox, the zip line, and the gorge swing. My favorite was the gorge swing (my least favorite was the flying fox -- not because it was a bad experience (and it wasn't, it was great), but because I felt the other two give you a bigger "rush").”
