Briefing

What we plan around at LVI.

Local constraints we build into every delivery window — curfew, customs, slots, transit, and ramp access.

01

Which side of the falls.

Zambia (LVI) and Zimbabwe (VFA) offer different views and different lodges, and crossing the bridge between them is a border crossing — we plan catering to the side you’re actually on.

02

Water levels change the trip.

High water (roughly Mar–May) means spectacular volume but heavy spray; low water (Sep–Dec) opens Devil’s Pool. The season shapes the itinerary.

03

River & lodge provisioning.

Zambezi sunset cruises and the lodges — boat provisioning on request.

04

Heat.

Careful cold-chain; the October heat is genuinely severe.

05

Confirm handler.

Delivery starts with the tail’s FBO.
