Helicopter Flight
This is a spectacular helicopter flight over the Victoria Falls. David Livingstone famously wrote on seeing the Victoria Falls for the first time in 1855 that “Scenes so lovely must have been gazed upon by angels in their flight”. Little did he know that 150 years later he could have exactly that opportunity. The best way to appreciate the true splendour of the Victoria Falls is to view them from the air. Our helicopters have specially designed ‘bubble shaped’ windows perfect for panoramic viewing and great photographic opportunities from all seats.

Cultural Village Tours
This is a Village Tour to a Royal Homestead in the village which was founded some centuries back. It is home to about 6,000 local people. The chief invites visitors into his village to get a glimpse of how his people have lived for generations and to learn a little about their traditional customs and beliefs. The Chief’s guides and the people of the village are more than happy to show visitors their huts and take you inside, explain how they are built and decorated, introduce you to various craftsmen and women at work and ask you to taste some traditional foods and beer. This is a working village, not a purpose built tourist attraction, and it is a privilege to be welcomed into their lifestyle. #VillageTour

Boma Dinner & Drum Show
The Boma – Dinner & Drum Show, which to date more than one million people have enjoyed, has come a long way since its humble beginnings a quarter of a century ago.
The Boma was developed after the Lokuthula Lodges were built in 1992, to cater for guests staying at the lodges. As the accommodation was deemed to be out of town, a restaurant was required by Resort Condominium International so that Lokuthula Lodges could obtain affiliation to the largest timeshare network in the world. As the developers of Lokuthula could not afford to build a restaurant, they instead just built a kitchen and called it a ‘bush’ restaurant. It was a 60-seater eatery and in the beginning the waiters were also the entertainers.
The restaurant was a failure due to the constant weather changes. On a visit to a friend who was re-doing her roof with thatch, one of the developers offered her a job to come up to Victoria Falls and build The Boma restaurant, which she did. Initially, the restaurant was called The Boma – Place of Eating, but it was re-branded in 2016 to The Boma – Dinner & Drum Show to include the unique entertainment element that has made the experience a Victoria Falls highlight.
The re-branding included a review of the food offering, entertainment, uniforms and décor. The changes have made The Boma more contemporary, without losing its traditional feel. In 2019 The Boma underwent another major refurbishment which saw the main kitchen and cookhouse rebuilt, new equipment installed and structural changes made to the serving areas to better accommodate the larger volumes of guests. In addition, its décor was redone to capture the style of the traditional Zimbabwean cooking hut. The Boma Dinner and Drums gives a wide variety of traditional cuisines in Victoria Falls, with more drums entertainment and dances for the visitors. Make this activity a first choice. #Boma
