We did the ultralight flight over the falls. Very cool and highly recommended. But you can’t take photos.

We entered Zimbabwe from Botswana (from Chobe) and got a multitude visa that included Zambia and went back and forth several times on that visa.
In any event don’t let a small visa cost keep you from seeing the falls from both countries. It was a lot of time and money to get there in the first place.

Like whwiden I use hotel shower caps, and used one at Victoria Falls as well. Worked fine. You obviously have to cover again immediately but it just takes a moment. And I always carry a spare (free) in case I drop one.

Hi Repleo,
I also paddle a Pimlico 120 in Cape Cod marshes. I’ve been doing it a long time (my kayak is older than yours). You’ve gotten great advice about cameras and bags but I can tell you that you’re completely correct that your kayak will not capsize in the waters you describe once you’ve successfully gotten into it. Straddle it with a leg on either side, feet solidly on the shallow sea bottom, and drop into the seat.
If just the bow or stern tip is on land it is much less steady than if either all or little of the kayak is afloat.

Drips and spray and rain are your only worries.
Call me crazy (and some have) but you can protect your camera from those hazards with something as simple as a disposable plastic shower cap wrapped around the body and lens.
Works great for light rain and boat spray. Can be replaced anytime you stay in a hotel.
