Talk of breathtaking moments above the sky enjoying a panoramic view of the beautiful Victoria Falls and Zambezi River while strapped onto a paraglide contraption and you will have all there is to say about this micro flight.

Interestingly, a paraglide is harnessed onto a motor that powers it and allows you to take off from the ground. Once in the air, it is wind-powered.

If you are the adrenaline junkie, then, bungee jumping from the Zambia-Zimbabwe border bridge is the perfect undertaking for you.

Just but to mention, you can choose to go with your head first and later take a swing. Isn’t this the real test of courage? Also, you can zip line from one end to the other.

A walk across the Knife Edge bridge is amazingly soothing and satisfying. The drizzles coming from the might Victoria falls crown the whole experience. Doesn’t it sound worth trying?
