This ideal bird’s-eye aerial view of the Zambezi River, the Victoria Falls and the gorges can be viewed by light aircraft (fixed wing) or Bell helicopter (Jet Ranger – four passengers, Long Ranger – six passengers). View the Zambezi from the air in all its beauty as it flows to the Falls, where it throws up a cloud of spray that sometimes reaches 300 metres high.

Please note that helicopter flights are weather-permitting. Each helicopter has a middle seat and there is no guarantee of a window seat – it is on a first come, first serve basis. These helicopter flips are with Bonisair Helicopter Flights using the Bonisair Helipad in Masuwe.

INSIDER’S TIP: This excursion gives you a better understanding of the zigzag gorge system and how it developed – it also ideally complements a ground tour of the Falls and its surrounding rainforest.
