We will stay 2 days in Vic falls in september; we intend to
trekk next to the falls, but what can we other do? I heard
some prices about rafting, benjing ... and I'm really
afraid.
Have you anything else to propose?

Vic Falls is very commercial and expensive.
If you're afraid you can watch someone jump! It's free and
good fun. A 15 minutes Flight of the Angels is about 250
USD. Bungee jumping is about 100 USD (that's a lot of money
to wet your pants). I don't know any rates for rafting.
We hiked along the Zambezi for a day and it was nice.
Once you reach vic falls you will be bombarded with things
to do- infact it becomes really annoying. Shop around for
the best deals - cheaper if you do group activities, and
make sure you go with a proper group, some of the street
sellers are dodgy. It is expensive, but good fun - Do the
Bungi jump- AMAZING- best minute of my life! Don't be
afraid Go mad!
I seem to remember that for a full day rafting it was
about $100 or $120 including lucnh. This is a definite must!
And if you do it make sure to row yourself, it's a hell of a
lot of fun (other's who did the alternative of not rowinf
also had a great time but I still got the impression it
wasn't as much of a rollercoaster ride). As for the
bunjy-jumping, I recomend you do it once in your life, and
if you are going to do it only once Vic falls is th place to
do it! (it is expensive (I paid $90) for such a short lived
experience but the rush from it lasts a long time -
especially when you actually see the video of your jump). I
know some one who did the body-boarding for half a day, he
liked but said that it was just a bit too scary.
Have a great trip.
