Gorge Swing (Zimbabwe)

So exciting i was a little nervous it would yank on my neck and back with the swing. But it was very smooth. Everyone was great at gorge swing. They showed me how to tuck my neck and keep tucked for about 4 seconds to prevent any whiplash. Hardest part was the climb out of the gorge took me 20 minutes. Not bad for a 70 year old

A totally amazing experience! A must do for thrill seekers! My kids and I all had a great time from beginning to end. The staff was super friendly and walked us through each step. I was a little concerned if there would be a jolt at the bottom, but completely smooth. We couldn't stop smiling the rest of the day!

Absolute thrill. This one is for the adrenaline junkies like me, but it if you want to conquer your fears I recommend this experience

+4

The term "swing" discounts how far of a free fall you experience!! I booked during a Tamuka Travel trip I was on, and had so much fun. The entire operation was safe and efficient, and was right next to the Lookout Cafe so I could sit and eat lunch while digesting what I had just done. Spectacular views and incredible activity. They offered various levels for the photo/video package, I believe in $25/35/45 increments for buying 1-3 items of the photos, video, and GoPro video.

Excellent adrenaline fuelled activity. Did the gorge swing after the Canopy Tour (Excellent in its own right) then the tandem Zip (also excellent) but then had to complete the day with the gorge swing. Staff were safety conscious and did it all with great humour. Special shout out to Nacho and Andrew who looked after us. Highly recommended activity. Pricey - Yes , photos pricey - Yes but you want a record of your bravery !

Our kids loved the experience and grateful for the very professional staff. A special thanks to Bhuzani who made it so much fun. The kids immediately felt safe with him as he kept boosting up their courage to face the challenge. It is reassuring to note that safely is their first priority.

We had an afternoon fee in Vic Falls. Hotel staff recommended we do the Gorge Swing, followed by dinner at the Lookout Cafe. What an excellent choice! Hotel arranged for the transfer. We were all up and ready at the swing in 15 minutes or so. What a rush seining over the Zambezi river! It’s a safe operation, plenty of harnesses and checks in place. The rush of the swing is just amazing! Quick tip - don’t pay for their pictures/video package. That is super expensive and takes a long time to reach your inbox. We paid the staff $20, gave them our phone, and they took pictures and videos for us instantly. Worked out great!

I wish I could give them a 5 star as the actual activity and staff were amazing! However we paid for our video and photos and were promised them by email. To this day we have never received them and have emailed on numerous occasions and requested a refund with no success. They are happy to take your money but not to send what you have paid for , really disappointing and put a damper on the whole experience.

My teenagers wanted to do an adventure activity and picked this one. Registering was smooth through Viator. I asked Wild Horizons to change it to tandem for my kids and on the day I moved the activity by an hour. They were very accommodating and agreed to change. We were picked up from our hotel and checkin was straight forward at the location. There was about 5 min walk to get the jump area. The kids were geared up right away and we waited for about 5 min before their turn. They enjoyed the adrenaline rush! However, coming back up wasn't smooth for them. They both had bruised and bleeding knees and legs. We bought the pics/videos for $30. It was sent to us the next day with a very nicely put together video.

Truly exhilarating. The first step takes a lot of courage, but it is well worth it for the unmatched experience of the free fall and incredible views. A total blast.
