Incredible once in a lifetime experience! - One of the best things I have ever done. Despite a lot of water flowing over the falls we felt completely safe and very well looked after. We were fortunate enough to be the only two in our group so had plenty of time to sit and experience the angels pool, it was a really special experience and the breakfast after was sensational! An absolute must if you are visiting Victoria Falls and I would highly recommend this company.

Fantastic Family Experience - Owen’s team took care of us, to include last minute changes to reservations, last-minute airport service, and assistance getting across the border to Zimbabwe for activities. We recommend them to all of our friends.

Do not miss this experience! - Our group of 4 had an incredible time on this tour. From the pick up to the lunch and the actual experience in the falls, we had a great time. The food was amazing and the staff for all portions of the tour were very friendly, professional and accommodating. They made safety a top priority and gave a rundown of what to do/expect. Being in the falls was more than we could have expected and I'd love the chance to do this tour again.

A highlight in Livingstone - This was absolutely incredible. We never felt unsafe at all and the guys really know what they are doing. They used our own cameras and took amazing pictures. Even people that couldn’t swim participated and felt safe. This was the highlight of our trip and I recommend it for everyone. For Avani and Royal Livingstone guests they even drop you off at the dock so you can walk back. This was a thrill that is appropriate for everyone. Get over your fears and try it. You won’t regret it.

Breathtaking - Wow!! We were in awe with the magnitude of the falls and seeing them from the top! It’s breathtaking and actually mindblowing!! They have the most brilliant tour and seeing the falls from the top and sitting in them is just amazing!!! This is a must! It can be abit scary and we went early morning and the mist caused quite abit of rain so it was chilly, but they have rain coats. It’s amazing that they can serve you with such a delicious meal and warm you up with some coffee! Chef, guides and staff all so brilliant, helpful and friendly!!!!! They even made me a “hot water bottle” in a little bottle to warm my hands up as my circulation was bad!

PURE ADRENALINE !! - Staying on the edge of the falls triggers PURE ADRENALINE - I hadn't been this excited since I looked into the lava lake of Nyiragongo in 2017. I was already in Angels Pool at 10 a.m., but couldn't get to sleep until 3 a.m. because of the adrenaline. Good guides, very helpful.

Fun way to see the Falls from a new prespretive. - What a great experience when visiting Vic Falls it is worth taking the time to jump in a cab and go over to Zambia side and experience this. Do something that few have tried.

Do not book through Owens Taxis, the whole experience costs 125 USD if you just book it when you get there. - Do not book through Owens Taxis for devils pool. Just wait until you get to either Zambia or Zimbabwe and book it through wherever you're staying and then find transportation. The flat rate is 125 USD per person and Owens Taxi charges 190 dollars (+60 if you're in Zimbabwe) to be the essentially sign you up and drive you there. If you just wait until you touch down to book it you will save a significant amount of money. Despite over paying for devils pool I had a once in a lifetime experience and would highly recommend doing devils pool!
