US Ambassadors tour Victoria Falls

Today the United States Ambassador to Zimbabwe, Mr David Bruce Wharton, and his Zambian counter-part, Mr. Mark Storella, met on the Victoria Falls Bridge from where they will start a bicycle ride touring various locations both in Livingstone, Zambia and Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe to promote the destination prior to the co-hosting the UNWTO Annual Congress in August this year. Over the next few days they will participate in tourism activities, tour the Victoria Falls both from the Zambia and Zimbabwe sides, visit schools, meet local business men and women, chat to local artists and join the Victoria Falls Ant-Poaching Unit in a conservation exercise.
