Description

Discover the landmarks of Victoria Falls on a Segway with an experienced guide. On your own electric Ninebot Segway, journey by major Victoria Falls attractions, discover hidden gems, and enjoy refreshments while perched 120 meters above Batoka Gorge.
The only thing better than exploring Victoria Falls is exploring it on a two-wheel personal transporter. You will be picked up from your hotel for the Victoria Falls Segway tour which departs early morning or late afternoon after a short training session. The early morning and late afternoon tours are a magical time to view Mosi-oa-Tunya, as the rays of the sun give the rising spray of the Falls a beautiful pink and gold tint, providing sights that are quite memorable and awe-inspiring. This five-kilometer guided Segway tour takes tourists along paths, roads, and sidewalks to scenic viewpoints.

You will glide over to the Victoria Falls Bridge where you will unveil its fascinating history. Built in 1904, it is the second most visited landmark at Victoria Falls. Here you’ll have photo opportunities and be able to see some of the high-flying activities that happen there. After the bridge, take a 500-meter ride to The Lookout Cafe, which offers some of the best views of Victoria Falls from 120 meters above Batoka Gorge. Select a refreshing beverage from the menu before embarking on the rest of your tour.

Continue along Zambezi Drive for 2 kilometers to reach the Big Tree, an enormous ancient Baobab, where David Livingstone carved his name in 1855. To and from the Big Tree your guide will tell you about the unique fauna and flora of the region as you pass through it, and you may even be lucky enough to spot some wildlife on the way. Heading back to the town you’ll discover Chinotimba Township, where you can get a sense of local customs and culture. Your guide will take you to the bustling local market where you can experience different fruit and vegetables and see a side of Victoria Falls that is not on most tourist itineraries.

The tour will conclude as you scoot back towards Victoria Falls Hotel where you will learn the history of this resort town from the oldest luxury hotel in Zimbabwe. At the conclusion of your tour, you will be transferred back to your hotel.
