Connecting Flights
In addition to the train trip from Victoria Falls to Pretoria; connecting flights need to be booked: We strongly advise against flying on the same same day as your train departure or arrival days due to possible delays with airline flights or the train.
- Fly one-way to Victoria Falls so that there is plenty of time to spare to get to the train station by your train departure time.
- Fly/drive one-way from Pretoria to your home town at the end of the train trip; leave ample time to get to airport; as often the train is delayed.
Hotels in Victoria Falls
The most convenient option is to stay at the Victoria Falls Hotel itself; but there's nothing stopping you from staying a different hotel, there'll just be a longer walk from the hotel to the train station.
