Travel budgets operate under completely different financial laws. 😂✈️

What’s something you’ll happily spend money on while travelling, but would never buy at home? 👀

27/08/2026

We all have that group chat where everyone says “Let’s plan a trip”... until it’s time to book. 😂
Tag the one friend who would actually leave the group chat and go.

Here’s a question...
How many trips have you postponed because nobody else was free?

We’ve seen it happen so many times.
Then someone finally decides to travel anyway.....and comes home with new friends and memories they’ll never forget.

That’s the magic of group travel.

My grandmother saw a video of me at Devil’s Pool and asked if I was trying to kill her with stress 😭

The mad part is people don’t stumble into these things. They book for them. I’ve had travellers tell me straight out that if Devil’s Pool isn’t running, they’re not coming. Others pick the whole trip around skydiving.

Fear is temporary. Content is forever.

I’ve done Devil’s Pool — got talked into it, wouldn’t have chosen it myself — skydiving, and jumped off a moving boat into the ocean.

But there are two I won’t touch:
🦁 The lion walk — an animal is an animal. It’ll do what an animal does. I don’t trust it.
🪂 Bungee — it’s that snap at the bottom. Every time I see it, no thank you.

And to be completely fair: plenty of our travellers do both and love them. The lion walk is one of the most booked activities we have and people come back raving about it. This is my list, not advice.

Since activities aren’t bundled into our packages, you only pay for what you actually want to do — so your list can look nothing like mine.

Two questions 👇
1. What’s the activity that’s just not for you?
2. What’s the craziest thing you’ve done that everyone thought you were mad for?

What time do you wake up on holiday vs at home? 👇

Nobody tells you that Victoria Falls looks completely different depending on the month you book 👇

💦 HIGH WATER · peaks around April

Roughly 500 million litres a minute. Extraordinary power, and for a lot of people that’s exactly what they came for. The trade-off is spray — heavy enough that views are often obscured, and plenty of visitors go home with photos of mist.

🪨 LOW WATER · roughly August to December

Less spray, and you finally see it properly — the rock face, the separate cascades, the full structure of the gorge.

⭐ WHAT LOW WATER OPENS UP

• Devil’s Pool — the rock pool right on the edge of the Falls. Usually runs from around mid-September through to December.

• When levels are too high for Devil’s Pool, Angel’s Pool runs instead — same falls, different section, different angle.

🗓 WE RUN VIC FALLS THROUGHOUT THE YEAR

September and December are the departures currently open — low water, best unobstructed views, Devil’s Pool.

We also run January, March, Easter and June departures. Those fall in the higher-water months, so you get the thunder and the spray instead of the clear views. Different trip, equally worth doing.
Message us and we’ll tell you which one suits what you’re after.

⚠️ Being straight with you: the river decides. Water levels shift year to year, conditions are seasonal, and they can change without notice — that applies to both the views and to Devil’s Pool. Nothing is guaranteed until you’re standing there. What we can say is that low water season puts the odds firmly in your favour.
