My goodness this takes me back. I haven't been to Zimbabwe for 27 years but this video makes me feel as though I've never been away. Thanks for posting.
Whoever's is reading this, I pray that whatever you're going through gets better and whatever you're struggling with or worrying about is to be fine and that everyone has a bright future ! Amen
You have a great channel. Look forward to learning about more Africa cities in the future. I was in Vic Falls town in Feb 2024. It's certainly not cheap. Everything including the ATMs is in US Dollars. My tips: 1) Buy the old multi-billion dollar notes from the street hawkers. On-target price for haggling is no more than USD1 for any billion+ dollar notes. Disregard anything less. They make great little gifts and talking points when you get home so be sure to stock up. 2) Best place for daytime food is surely the Lookout Cafe. Sensational location. You can safely walk it from the CBD. Go for breakfast as lunch is often fully booked. Evening Meal - Three Monkeys. Beers and live music - The River Brewing Company. 3) I'm not qualified to say more, other than personally I preferred Livingstone/Zambia for my falls experience.
A) Did you go for a dinner sunset cruise? Or jut sunset cruise? B) activities, do you book overseas or when you get there? C) walking, do you "safely" walk around the town? Do i need to hire a car
@@tarrysmile A) Dinner (or at least food) and open bar is the norm, I'm pretty sure. B) Activities can all be researched and arranged locally. C) Walking around Vic Falls Town is absolutely fine in the daytime, after dark in any poorly lit area - not advised due to all manner of wildlife that could at the very least give you a shock! Car hire is certainly not the norm.
not me always catching up with videos at work 🤣🤣 Special thanks to you as always for putting an effort in your work, for the detailed videos, for trying to show as much as you can areas & God bless you always, travel safe😉
One of my all time favorite towns... Think I need to go back again December for the annual Jameson All White Party, what a hippy experience it is!!! But the drive from Gobabis to there is tiring, especially with those pig-headed Botswana traffic police
Of all the countries in SADC, I've had nothing but best overall experience with Bots police when compared to the rest, even when they gave me a ticket for speeding.
I was there in 1996. Going back this year via Namibia. A lot has changed there fella! I remember a wimpy bar on a corner. Mr Mugabe went passed us with his massive guards. Those blokes were huge.
Great video. It shows you the whole town. It's very small. You can walk it in less than a hour. It's kind of boring and super overpriced. Bring lots of small bills. Everyone will lie and say they have no change. Go for a weekend to see vic falls, rafting or bungee and you'll be good. Always be careful with taxis overcharging. Don't pay more than $5USD per ride. Locals pay $2USD, but unfortunately because you are a tourist you are forced to pay tourist prices. Don't make eye contact with those selling things in the street. According to locals they steal the things they are trying to sell on the street corner. That's why they can only carry 2 or 3 items. They will chase you for blocks to convince you to buy something and even follow you into other businesses. If they see they can't get you to buy, then they will say can you buy them food. This gimmick happens in all these African countries near by.
Thanks for showing us around Nick. I was last in Vic Falls in March 2011. I also visited a community north of Bulawayo as I was sponsoring a young man through Plan International. It was a special visit for me as I lived in Rhodesia a long time ago :)
