Activities at Ursula’s Homestead
Visit Ursula’s Homestead and embark on a Big Five wildlife safari in style with intense game drives, helicopter flights, Victoria Falls tours, local cultural exploration and more.Do Something Different Take a Walking Safari
The walking safari at Ursula’s Homestead takes place on Victoria Falls Private Game Reserve. You are accompanied by a highly-trained field guide, who will introduce you to the many mammal and bird species, as well as draw your attention to the diverse plant life, on the reserve.
You Simply Must See Victoria Falls
Walking through the riverine forest and along the falls, you’ll learn more about this environment and its history, before arriving at Dr Livingstone’s statue. Standing next to this landmark becomes nostalgic when considering a lone man made his way through deepest Africa, coming across tribes he could not communicate with and battling illness, to be the first non-African to lay eyes on the falls.
Angels Helicopter Flight
Explorer and missionary Dr David Livingstone, on first seeing the Victoria Falls in 1855, famously wrote: “Scenes so lovely must have been gazed upon by angels in their flight.” Little did he know that, 160 years later, we mere mortals would have a chance to soar above them. The pilot flies left- and right-hand circuits over the falls to give you the best perspectives, up the Zambezi River and over the Zambezi National Park, where you’ll spot game on the plains below.
