Victoria Falls White Water Rafting Shearwater | 21.08.19
Grade 5 White Water Rafting Victoria Falls Zimbabwe on the Zambezi River Oasis Overland
This is the same river where the Australian girl bungy jumped and her rope snapped and she crashed in into the crocodile infested waters on 12/31/11 and survived. Well we white water rafted this bad boy river! Crocodiles we ain't scared! Our raft with our tour guider P.K. flipped 5 times. Go big or go home! I am the guy who is passed out on the ground at the 2 minute mark before we started because I was hungover from a big night the night before. Scariest part after out 1st flip the tour guide, myself, and Oli (a Swiss lifeguard) had 2 reflip the boat back as we were the 1st back on top of it. We flipped the boat back over on top of ourselves in the fast moving river! As most who have done white water rafting if you initiallly flip the boat over there are air pockets where you can breathe from the huge gaps from the seats. We didn't have that option. For a good time Oli and I were trapped under the boat w/ no air.going down the river and couldn't get out. Luckily we did though and survived.
Water Rafting On The Mighty Zambezi River
When a river 1700 metres wide plunges 120 metres over the Victoria Falls and is trapped in a basalt gorge no more than 40 metres wide, the result is….TURBULENT!
Over 70 kilometres, the warm waters of the Zambezi River offers some of the finest Grade 5 high volume rapids on the planet as it surges through the scenic splendour of the Batoka Gorge.
In 1985, Shearwater was the first company to run commercial white-water rafting trips on the Zambezi River in Zimbabwe. Since those early intrepid paddle strokes Shearwater has become synonymous internationally with some of the biggest and best white water action in the world. Prepare to get wet and wild on the mighty Zambezi in one adrenaline-filled day of white-water action!

Soaring Over Victoria Falls
A MicroFlight experience over Victoria Falls (Zambia and Zimbabwe).
I booked the BatokaSky microflight experience (see: through Shearwater Adventures ( As I was staying at the Kingdom Hotel in Zimbabwe, Shearwater arranged a taxi to the Zimbabwe/Zambian border (a 3 minute drive). The taxi driver then went in to immigration and helped expedite the border crossing. Once across, another taxi driver drove me to the microflight airfield, about a 15 minute drive into Zambia. It was all perfectly arranged/coordinated.
Once at the airfield, I waited about 30 minutes for my turn. You are not allowed to bring any recording devices with you, so the GoPro film footage is provided by the company itself. You have the choice of choosing video or photographs of your trip, but you must choose the option before you fly. Jackets and helmets (with built in speakers and microphone) are provided.
The experience on the microflight is akin to the wind rush one feels while on a roller coaster. It's exhilarating! I've never had so much fun and felt so attached to the flying experience than when I flew this flight. From beginning to end, it was a fantastic experience!
On the way to Victoria Falls, we saw impala and Cape Buffalo grazing in the fields. And just as we approached the falls, I also saw elephants grazing on an island in the Zambezi River. On the way back, we flew over the river and I saw crocodiles and large pods of hippos.
If you're ever in Victoria Falls, this is one the best things you can do! And it is much better than the helicopter ride (which I also did).
