Victoria Falls Helicopter Flight and Safari Combo | Tailor-Made Zimbabwe Experience

Why choose a helicopter flight and safari combo in Victoria Falls

Combine the dramatic aerial perspective of Victoria Falls with a classic Zimbabwean safari to get the best of both worlds in one trip. Zimtrek Travel plans bespoke packages that pair a scenic helicopter transfer or flight over the Falls with nearby game drives, river cruises and lodge stays tailored to your travel style - from active adventure to relaxed wildlife photography days. Our local knowledge and vetted lodge partners ensure logistics are simple and reliable, so you can focus on the experience.

What this combo typically includes

Packages vary by length and comfort level, but common inclusions are shown below. Prices are illustrative and shown in US Dollar as a guide; actual quotes depend on travel dates, lodge choice and group size.

How we personalise your trip

• Select the helicopter flight duration and whether you want landing options or extended photography time.
• Choose the safari area - Hwange for big game diversity, Matusadona for lakeside scenery, or a private concession for intimate drives.
• Match accommodation to travel style: family-friendly lodges, photography-focused camps, or romantic bush retreats.

Logistics and safety

Helicopter flights operate with licensed operators and experienced pilots; Zimtrek coordinates timing so flights dovetail with transfers and game-drive schedules. Flight times are weather-dependent and subject to aircraft availability. We work with trusted ground operators and lodges to manage permits, transfers and guides so your day runs smoothly.
