Day trip options on your non-match days
Fixtures take one part of the day. These are the blocks that fit around them, with realistic timings.
Half-day: falls + town
Rainforest circuit at opening time, Big Tree, craft markets, back in time for an afternoon start. Around 3 hours.
Half-day: Zambezi sunset cruise
Best fit after a day fixture — boards late afternoon, back in town by 19:00. Around 2.5 hours.
Half-day: adrenaline block
Bungee, zip-line or gorge swing at Victoria Falls Bridge, or a 12–15 minute helicopter Flight of Angels. Around 2–3 hours.
Full rest day: safari
Zambezi National Park or a Chobe day trip into Botswana for elephant herds. Best placed on a no-fixture day.
Full rest day: Zambia side
Cross the bridge to Livingstone for Devil's Pool or Livingstone Island in the low-water months. Allow a full day for the border.
Evening: culture and dinner
Boma drum-and-dinner evening or a village cultural visit — the easiest add-on after a night finish.

Supporter groups and travel clubs
Block-held town-centre rooms within a short shuttle of the stadium, match-day transport timed to the toss, and one activity slot per non-match day so nobody misses a fixture. Ideal for supporter clubs, tour operators reselling into the tournament, and friend groups of 5 to 60.
Team support & hospitality
Player families, sponsors and media
A different brief entirely: quieter accommodation away from supporter blocks, private vehicles rather than shared shuttles, flexible activity bookings that survive a schedule change, discreet handling of arrivals, and a named coordinator reachable on match day. Quoted separately from fan packages.
Cricket World Cup 2027 travel FAQs
Is Victoria Falls hosting 2027 Cricket World Cup matches?
Yes. Zimbabwe is a co-host of the 2027 ICC Men's Cricket World Cup and the Mosi-oa-Tunya International Cricket Stadium in Victoria Falls is one of the country's host venues, alongside Harare and Bulawayo. The tournament window is October–November 2027; the exact fixture list has not been published yet.
How far is Mosi-oa-Tunya Stadium from Victoria Falls town centre?
The stadium sits on the edge of Victoria Falls town, roughly a 5–10 minute drive from the main hotel strip on Livingstone Way and about 10 minutes from the Victoria Falls rainforest entrance. Most town-centre lodges are close enough for a short shuttle rather than a long transfer.
Can I watch a match and visit Victoria Falls on the same trip?
Easily. Match days leave a free morning or afternoon, and the falls tour, a Zambezi sunset cruise or a helicopter flight each take two to three hours, so a single trip covers cricket and the falls without rushing.
What activities are near the stadium?
Within 15 minutes of the stadium you have the Victoria Falls rainforest, Zambezi sunset cruises, the Big Tree, Zambezi National Park game drives, the bungee and zip-line site at Victoria Falls Bridge, helicopter flights and the craft markets in town.
How early should a fan group book accommodation for CWC27?
Book by early 2027 at the latest. Victoria Falls has a limited bed base and a World Cup fixture fills town-centre lodges quickly. Seongo block-holds rooms for groups of 8 or more and confirms them against the fixture list once it is released.
Do you handle team, sponsor and hospitality travel as well as fans?
Yes. Player-family group bookings, sponsor and hospitality delegations, and media crews need different handling — quieter accommodation, private transfers on a match-day schedule, flexible activity slots and a single on-the-ground coordinator. We quote these separately from standard fan packages.
What happens if fixtures move or Victoria Falls loses a match?
Deposits on our CWC27 packages are transferable to any other date inside the tournament window, so a fixture change does not cost you the booking.
