Zimbabwe visa purchase when traveling by shuttle from Kasane to Livingston
Will I need to buy a visa upon entering Zimbabwe on a shuttle bus from Kasane to Livingston?
If so, will I be able to purchase a double-entry visa at that border?--our flight leaves from Victoria Falls so I will need a visa to get to the airport. I am a US citizen. Thanks for any information! Jane |
JaneB.
yes you can purchase the visa on entry at Kasane. You shoulld be able to get a re-entry visa, although I am not up-to-date on the costs. Are you only using Zimbabwe for flights and not staying in the country at all? I would urge you to save yourself the additional cost by looking at flying out of LVI, I am sure that arranging atransfer to LVI via the Kazangula crossing will be around the same price and is easy enough to do. |
we;re flying into Livingstone, driving across to Vic Falls, 5 nights in Namibia, flying to Kasane, driving to Vic Falls, 4 nights in Hwange then depart from Livingstone. We're told we'd have to buy visas twice for Zam and twice for Zim (though the Zim could be a double entry visa) it was still cheaper this way than flying into/out of VFA from JNB

Dennis,
Can't you get a visa waiver, if you are staying at any of the Zambia lodges? I think that's what we did when we spent a couple nights in Livingstone last year (Songwe Village) Can't wait to hear your comments from Hwange. It's very high on my list of places to visit. Hari |
Hari, we're not staying in Zambia this trip. Land in Livingstone, drive directly to Ilala Lodge in Vic Falls, then 5 nights Islands In Africa (Namibia) 4 nights Hwange then 1 night at Vic Falls Hotel, so no visa waiver this time!

Oh, ok....trip sounds super!!! regardless....caprivi strip, Hwange and the falls....when do you leave?

Mkhonzo, I would like to travel from Kasane to Livingston for 2 nights and then travel from Livingston to Victoria Falls for 1 night. Our flight back to US leaves from Victoria Falls on British Air--AA frequent flyer miles!
I will work on finding a shuttle from Kasane to Livingston via the Kazangula crossing. Thanks for the suggestion. Jane |
Hari, I leave October 25...4 weeks from tomorrow!

Round the corner, Dennis....fantastic!!!
