TEN wealthy businesspersons, five organisers and seven crew members sums up a group of tourists that landed early this morning in Victoria Falls on a 12-day private holiday.

The tourists were aboard a private jet run by ROAR AFRICA Emirates Executive Private Jet and are on a trip dubbed “The Greatest & Safest Safari on Earth.”

Soon after landing just before 7am, the group made a brief visit to the Mighty Victoria Falls before being whisked away in helicopters to Matetsi area for game drives and other activities in the Pandamatenga Forest.

ROAR AFRICA chief executive and founder, Ms Deborah Calmeyer and two of Africa’s most prominent safari guides Dr Ian McCallum and Humphrey Gumpo are hosting the group in partnership with a local tour operator and hotelier.

The Mighty Victoria Falls was the first stop for the group in its 12-day tour of Africa as they landed at the Victoria Falls International Airport.
This buttresses the country’s prime resort as a safe world destination especially after the city achieved herd immunity with vaccination of more than 60 percent of its eligible population.

The trip aims to be an adventure for people who want to see Africa.

From Victoria Falls the group flew to Matesi from where they will visit the Okavango Delta in Botswana, Kenya’s Great Migration and the world’s last wild mountain gorillas in the forests of Rwanda until August 29.

The travelling tourists and crew are fully vaccinated with seamless PCR testing on hand, said the organisers.
