Trip breakdown
Flow
Morning departure from Nairobi by road (approximately five to six hours) or a short scheduled flight to an airstrip in the Mara. Lunch at the camp. Afternoon game drive on the open plains — the Mara holds the highest density of big cats in Africa, and lion, cheetah and leopard are all realistic on a first afternoon.
Full day in the Masai Mara with a picnic lunch in the field — the Mara River and its resident crocodile and hippo, the Musiara and Rhino Ridge lion prides, cheetah on the termite mounds of the open plains, and, from July to October, the migration herds. Optional dawn hot-air balloon flight with a champagne breakfast (supplement).
Final dawn game drive, then an optional visit to a Maasai village with a community guide. Brunch, then the flight or drive back to Nairobi, arriving late afternoon.
Before you go
February has maximum water flow: The falls are at their most powerful with incredible spray (the "smoke that thunders"). Views may be obscured by mist, but the experience is dramatic. Temperatures are warm (25-30°C) with occasional rain.
Yes, bridge tours are available including: Historical tours explaining construction, engineering tours, and bridge walks. Some include bungee jumping or bridge swinging. Tours typically cost $15-$30 and require booking in advance. Safety equipment is provided.
The bridge was built from both sides simultaneously, meeting perfectly in the middle. Construction took 14 months (1904-1905) using steel shipped from England. The arch was assembled on falsework and then dropped into place - a remarkable engineering feat for its time.
Victoria Falls Bridge was completed in 1905 as part of Cecil Rhodes' Cape to Cairo railway vision. It spans 198 meters across the Zambezi Gorge, 128 meters above the river. Designed by Sir Ralph Freeman, it's a steel arch bridge used for rail, road, and foot traffic.
Zimbabwe side weather: Similar to Zambia but slightly hotter in summer. January-March: 25-30°C with rain. April-June: 15-25°C, dry. July-September: 10-25°C, cool nights. October-December: 25-35°C, becoming rainy. The microclimate near the falls is always humid.
It depends: Zimbabwe has more viewpoints and better overall views. Zambia offers unique experiences like Devil's Pool and closer waterfall access. Most visitors recommend seeing both sides if possible. Zimbabwe is better for first-time visitors wanting comprehensive views.
