• Noteworthy:
  • We experienced a "Flight of Angels" helicopter flight over Victoria Falls. This gave us spectacular views of one of the Seven Wonders of the World.
  • We had a wonderful dinner cruise up the Zambezi River with hippos swimming around us.
  • Our flight on Kenya Airways from Victoria Falls to Nairobi was cancelled and we stayed an extra night at The Victoria Falls Hotel. We were rebooked on two flights the next day: Victoria Falls to Jo'Berg; Jo'Berg to Nairobi
  • The next day, our reservation for the flight to Jo'Berg was canceled. We purchased new tickets and when we arrived in Jo'Berg, we were greeted with wheelchairs to help expedite us through the airport. We had to reclaim and recheck our luggage. We had to go through Passport Control twice. It was an experience!!!
