How to Travel from London to Victoria Falls?

Since there are no direct flights from the UK to Victoria Falls, choosing the right connection is crucial for a tireless journey.

Option 1: The South African Route (Most Popular)

Step 1: Fly British Airways or Virgin Atlantic from London to Johannesburg (JNB).
Step 2: Connect to a short 1.5-hour flight to Victoria Falls.
Regional Airlines: Airlink, Fastjet, or South African Airways.
Why choose this? Perfect if you want to combine a trip to South Africa (Cape Town/Joburg) with your Zimbabwe holiday.

Option 2: The East African Route (Value for Money)

Airline: Ethiopian Airlines or Kenya Airways.
Route: London -> Addis Ababa (or Nairobi) -> Victoria Falls.
Why choose this? Often cheaper than the Johannesburg route. Ethiopian Airlines flies directly into VFA, saving you the hassle of changing terminals in South Africa.

Why Fly to Victoria Falls (VFA) vs Livingstone (LVI)?

The Zimbabwe Advantage: The best views of the falls (75% of them) are on the Zimbabwe side. Flying into VFA puts you just 20 minutes away from the major hotels and the entrance gate.
Avoid Border Crossings: If you fly into Livingstone (Zambia), you have to cross the border bridge to see the main falls, which can take time. Landing at VFA is much more convenient for the full experience.
Modern Airport: The new Victoria Falls Airport terminal handles international tourists efficiently with shorter queues.
