Day 5 - 05 September 2011 : Victoria Falls An exciting day ahead!
First thing this morning – A Lion Walk and Elephant Safari! Walking with Lions is a thrilling encounter that may prove a highlight of your Victoria Falls experience. During your lion encounter, the pride strolls freely through the bush and, after an initial safety briefing, you are free to walk with them, watching them interact, play, or even stalk prey species that they encounter. The Elephant Back Safari is an experience you will never forget. After being introduced to your elephant carer, you mount your elephant for a meander through the bush, viewing game from a wonderfully elevated vantage point. Your safari ends with interaction time with your elephant. All the elephants are rescued orphans from necessary culling operations in Zimbabwe in 1988. Although it is extremely difficult to train African elephants, these elephants have been lovingly and patiently trained to a high degree and are all very accustomed to humans and literally enjoy the interaction!

On both lion and elephant safaris, there are opportunities to take close-up photographs of interactions with these magnificent animals.

Late afternoon you board your boat for a sunset cruise! Sit back and sip your favorite drink and be part of the sundowner-culture in Africa! Apart from the great views of birds, hippo’s and crocodiles, the sunset will be something to die for! Remember to recharge all the batteries of the cameras before you go on this cruise!
