Frequently asked questions
Victoria Falls International Airport (VFA) serves the Zimbabwe side and Harry Mwanga Nkumbula International Airport (LVI) serves Livingstone, Zambia. Both have basic facilities including currency exchange, car rentals, and transfers to hotels. VFA has recently been upgraded with improved terminals and amenities.
For domestic flights, arrive 1.5 hours before departure. For international flights, arrive 2-3 hours early. The airports are relatively small but can get busy during peak tourist seasons. Check-in counters typically open 2 hours before flight time.
The best time depends on your priorities: February-May for maximum water flow, September-December for Devil's Pool access and clearer views, or April-June for pleasant weather with moderate water flow. Avoid November if you want clear photos as spray can be heavy.
Yes, October is excellent! Water levels are moderate, the spray isn't overwhelming, weather is warm (25-35°C), and Devil's Pool is usually accessible. It's less crowded than peak season and offers good value for money.
September offers excellent conditions: Water flow is reduced enough for clear views, weather is warm and dry, Devil's Pool opens (usually mid-August to January), and it's shoulder season with fewer crowds. Perfect for photography and activities.

Nature had good plans for us, thanks to the Focus team, really exceptional service, great timing and recommendations.
Improve on your timing, we waited for over 30 minutes for our pick up. The overall tours was amazing, but we were again picked up late, the buses being clean but still needs to improve in timing thank you.
Your buses were so clean!!! We definitely looking forward to coming back. You guys offered us the best services ever!
We had a wonderful time, great landscapes, delicious food, I can always do this again I want to give a big thanks to your team.
