Traditional Village Tour
Visit an authentic African village and interact with the local villagers. Witness rural life first hand on a Victoria Falls Village Tour. Experience the local culture and enter into a different world as you explore a traditional village in Victoria Falls. The traditional village that you will visit is located a short 20 minute drive from Victoria Falls town. At the village you are given the opportunity to interact with the local villagers going about their daily tasks. The Victoria Falls village tour enables you to see tribal life first hand. Visit rural homes and see people tending their fields and possibly getting the chance to help in some of the day-to-day chores.
Tribal life is an inextricable part of the story of Africa. In the modern world, a connection to the proud past is more important than ever. As part of most African Sunsets safaris, you are introduced to a village elder, the keeper of tribal traditions. Appearing quietly regal in his local garb, he speaks to you about the tribe’s history and their hopes for the future. He tells fascinating tales of rituals that have lasted for centuries, including the initiation of young boys into warriorhood. You listen eagerly, and are encouraged to ask questions and challenge assumptions. This is a rare opportunity to understand a vastly different culture, and to connect first-hand with a timeless tradition. We will curate your safari to meet many tribes on village stays or visits, Himba, Herero, Maasai, Damara, Batwa, Shona villages.
