Car Hire Victoria Falls Airport

Victoria Falls Mini Guide

The airport is the Zimbabwean entry point for the majestic Victoria Falls and until recently had seen a slump in arrivals with the troubles in the country. Most of the traffic moved to the airport on the quieter Zambian side of the falls but since the coalition, matters have settled and passengers have returned to Victoria Falls Airport for the better quality accommodation the city offers.

Getting to Victoria Falls Airport?
Getting to Victoria Falls Airport is easier than you might think. There are scheduled flights from neighbouring countries but also charter flights from Europe including the UK with Thomson from Gatwick. The busiest route and one often taken by tourists who want to spend just a few days there is the connecting flight from Johannesburg. Once at the airport it’s a good idea to hire your own vehicle to get you to your hotel as there have been incidents involving bogus taxi drivers.

What is the airport like?
At the moment it’s a tiny and overcrowded airport which has an adequate range of facilities including shops, café style restaurants, banking facilities and car hire. It’s currently undergoing a huge redevelopment which should ease overcrowding and add many extra shops and restaurants. The runway is due to be extended and will take planes from outside Africa, increasing passenger numbers and tourism to the falls.
