As I mentioned, there is no place on the ground from which you can fully
take in the majesty of Victoria Falls. So...take to the air!
A small airport on the Zambia side of the border operates microlight
and helicopter flights over the falls. The microlights were all booked
the day we had free for such activities, so we opted for the helicopter,
which accommodates four people plus the pilot. You can sign up for
either a 15 or 30 minute flight--we opted for the 15 minute
excursion which, of course, goes far more quickly than you'd imagine.
