Game drives, walking safaris and horseback safaris inside Zambezi National Park, just outside Victoria Falls town, along the river.
Zambezi National Park runs along the river just upstream of the falls, and is the closest proper game-viewing area to Victoria Falls town — home to elephant, buffalo, zebra, giraffe and antelope species, with occasional lion sightings.
You can experience it three ways: a vehicle-based game drive (the most common option), a guided walking safari on foot with an armed ranger for a closer, quieter approach, or a horseback safari for novice or experienced riders, which lets you get near grazing animals that would otherwise move off from a vehicle or on foot.
Because it's so close to town, this is an easy half-day add-on rather than a full expedition — a good option if your itinerary doesn't include a longer stay at Hwange or Chobe.
$71 per person — the standard vehicle-based safari.
$100 per person — guided on foot with an armed ranger.
$135 per person — novice and experienced options available.
All three run from the same park, roughly 15–20 minutes from Victoria Falls town.
