Gorge Swing – Tandem (Zimbabwe)

Tour Description
The Wild Horizons Tandem Gorge Swing is a heart-stopping, mind-bending leap into the unknown. You’ll find yourself standing on the edge, staring into the yawning Batoka Gorge at Victoria Falls. The free fall is 70 meters, a swift plunge into nothingness that ends with a wild 120-meter swing above the rushing Zambezi River. For those who dare, this is more than just a thrill—it’s a moment of utter surrender to the forces of gravity and fear.

Activity Description
The Tandem Gorge Swing isn’t just about the fall—it’s about everything leading up to it. The moment you step onto the wooden platform, time slows, and fear seeps in. As you leap off, there’s a split second of weightlessness, then the world rushes back with a force. You’re suspended 120 meters above the Zambezi River, with nothing but air beneath you, while a pulley slowly pulls you back to the edge of reality. It’s an experience that shatters any illusions of control, leaving behind only the raw intensity of survival and awe. The fall lasts three seconds, but those seconds echo for a lifetime.
