The turnoff from Senyati from the A33, is where Senyati's sign is. It is the most direct road but also the most sandy. There are signs that warn people about the heavy thick sand, especially during the dry season. We also advise people that has trailers and caravans to rather take the 2x4 road through the Lesoma Village.
Victoria Falls Transfers.
