The outstanding beauty of the Victoria falls can be captured from all angles during the 15 minutes scenic flight or the 25 minutes game flight. Our helicopter ride begins with a gentle take-off from our helipad at Kazangula airstrip along the Victoria Falls to Kazangula highway and provides the most incredible views and photographs of Victoria Falls. We offer 2 options of helicopter scenic flights over the Victoria Falls – the 15 Minutes Scenic Flight and the 25 Minutes Game Flight. You’ll witness the natural beauty of the Batoka Gorge on the Zambezi River as you fly downriver following this world heritage site’s mighty Zambezi as it carves a path through steep cliffs. We’ll be flying over long island on the upper Zambezi upstream from the falls, towards the Zambezi National Park, home to a wide variety of wildlife. This is a wonderful opportunity to see wildlife such as elephants, hippos, crocodiles from the air, as well as up and down the river.

Exhilarating, thoroughly think it’s worthwhile doing from above and again in the Park itself. Well organised staff could not be more accommodating and Captain Andrew made us all feel very welcome, he’s a rugby man what would you expect, although he’s a fair weather fan of the Springboks.😆
This is truly a not to be missed experience. It’s definitely not an inexpensive thing to do, but I highly, highly recommend it.Everything was handled very professionally. We loved our flight. We got an incredible photos. We were the last flight of the day at 5 o’clock in August and the light was awesome.
Pick up was punctual and friendly. The experience itself is amazing and made you feel safe. The views over Victoria Falls are spectacular. If the opportunity arises to fly over Victoria Falls, take it
Great experience. Go early morning if you can. Iconic way to see a natural wonder of the world. Only distracted was the fees. Not sure why these arwntly included in the initial booking but it would make it simpler and enhance the experience if they were. TY 🙏
Dear Stephen “We are delighted to hear that you had an amazing experience. Please note that park fees are a government levy applied to each activity conducted within the national park. These fees vary depending on the activity and are payable at check‑in they are separate from any payments made online.”
There are about $40 in additional fees. An hour before our flight, we were contacted and told this needed to be paid in cash, so it was a bit of a hassle getting to an ATM on short notice. Our driver was friendly and picked us up right on time. The tour was a once in a lifetime experience with incredible views. After the tour, our guide, Gift, gave us a link to review, asked us to mention his name, tapped my phone on the 5 star review for Guide, and watched over our shoulders until we completed the review. Many companies encourage good reviews but never with this much control. It made a remarkable experience end in an uncomfortable way.
Grand! Nothing more to say.🤩
Given the very narrow configuration of the falls, the helicopter flight is essential because it allows you to see the fault well, which you cannot do on foot. The organization of mjairvest is very structured and reassuring.
I had an amazing time, this was the top experience of my whole trip . Very well organised and just brilliant
I paid online but when I arrived the site a black guy singled me out and asked for US$25 extra. He said it is for helicopter parking fees. I asked why I was the only person here to be asked to pay more, he then waived the charge. I was alone to join this flight. All the fees should be made transparent.
View from the top can never be compared to viewing on the ground. The splendor and spectacular waterfall curtain can be seen in its entirety. Watch the mighty Zambezi and its islands as the ravaging flow approaches the waterfall and turn into the meandering gorge. Far down below emerges water from the power generating tunnel producing electricity for Livingstone hydro power station. The helicopter route is well planned for an efficient view from above. Definitely a “flight of the angels”!!
