A 40-minute drive through the countryside of Zimbabwe on off-road terrain will offer picturesque scenery on the way to the top of the Gorge. After the safety and procedural briefing, you will take the vertical descent to Rapid 23 and enjoy the hour long walk along the river to Rapid 25. The hiking continues into an authentic beautiful Ndebele homestead where you will get a chance to interact with the local headman and his family while you have brunch under the thatched shade of their decorated mud huts. The graceful hosts are keen to show off their home and share their cultural way of life in relation to family, education, livestock, diet and anything you may find interesting.

After many days travelling and the many adrenaline centric activities at Victoria Falls it was good to find an activity to stretch our legs . A 0600 am pickup followed a 40 - 50 min drive to and from the gorge was along a bitumen highway and bumpy, dusty African road in a 4WD safari vehicle. The Batoka Gorge Hike was described differently to what we actually did, the steep descent has been cut, but still an enjoyable meander of approx 4 kms along the gorge. The guide Tanjin(? spelling) was passionate about the area and very knowledgeable about the history, the trees and plant and birdlife of the area. A visit to a local village and talk by the village head and medicine man was interesting and included lunch. A slower pace morning trip out of the Falls area to include in your itinerary.. - Karen
A HUGE THANK YOU especially to our guide Tendai. You are fantastic and we will never forget the time spent with you - Massimo
