You have a full day to soak up the wonderful atmosphere of Victoria Falls.
Victoria Falls is a breathtaking natural wonder located in southern Africa, on the Zambezi River, bordering Zimbabwe and Zambia. It is one of the largest waterfalls in the world and is known for its stunning beauty and the variety of activities it offers. Visitors can take in the awe-inspiring view of the falls from various vantage points, including the Zimbabwean side which offers the best views. There are also several adrenaline-pumping activities on offer, such as bungee jumping, white water rafting, and zip-lining, for the more adventurous travelers. For those who prefer a more relaxed pace, there are plenty of opportunities to enjoy the local culture and cuisine or to do some shopping for souvenirs. At the lodge itself is a Boma Experience – a cultural feast with food, face-painting, dance, and more (optional)
The Vulture Culture Experience is a supplementary feeding programme that aids the survival of these remarkable but endangered birds, and allows visitors to enjoy the spectacular sight of hundreds of these birds swooping down to be fed on leftover meat scraps from onsite restaurants.
The activity, which occurs at 1pm daily, begins with a briefing on a deck beneath Victoria Falls Safari Lodge about the ecological importance of vultures and the plight they are facing, before visitors take a short walk down a bush path to a hide to view the vultures feeding. Here there is the opportunity to spot white-headed, hooded, lappet-faced and white-backed vultures, as well as marabou storks.
The project also allows vulture numbers to be monitored, as populations are dwindling due to a variety of human created issues, including electrocution by power lines, loss of available and safe food supply, direct and indirect poisoning and the use of their parts for traditional medicines.
This Vulture Culture Experience, which appeals to all age groups, and is free – although visitors are encouraged to make a donation, which goes to the Victoria Falls Wildlife Trust.
