Creator's Key Takeaways

It's great because all the staff on board are locals.

Herds of elephants. We saw impalas. We saw kudu, which I didn't know what a kudu was. We saw babu baboons, hippos.

We were 10 feet from an elephant.

Oh, yes. ... It's an amazing experience, the helicopter ride over Victoria Falls.
