Just saw on the River Club section of the Wilderness Site today that the following activities are included within our fare at the River Club..

ACTIVITIES
The following activities are included in the full board price:

1.Tour of Zambian side of The Falls
2. Visit to Simonga Village
3. Evening Cruises on the River
4. Game Drives in the Mosi Oa Tunya Game Park (white rhino)
5. Fishing
6. Boat Cruises
7. Bird walks
8. Croquet
9. There is a running trail within the camp

Tours of:
1. Livingstone Museum
2. Railway Museum
3. Crocodile Farm
4. Historical Livingstone
5. Jewish places of interest
6. Local Markets

Any thoughts as to which ones of these are worthwhile and which not worth the time?? And, is it worth it to go over to the Zim side of the falls or can we see pretty well from the Zambian side?

1) Definitely
2) ?
3-9) No

1-5) Maybe
6) Definitely

Zim side not worth the trouble ($30 entrance visa, then trouble, then $20 exit visa) -when last we were there. Although the view of the Falls is much better on the Zim side. Not much rain this year so you should be able to see the Falls without to much spray. Ask the locals on the ground about safety. You spent a lot of $$$$ getting there so see as much as possible when there (within reason).
Bye

Anne--thanks for the reply. OK, will not bother to do Zim side of Falls. Have you or anyone else done one of the ultralight or helicopter flights over the Falls?
