For many years tour companies and the immigration officials on the Zimbabwean side of the Victoria Falls had an agreement that that when clients go to Zambia or Botswana for a day they would be eligable for a free re entry visa into Zimbabwe. However it was just an agreement between the two parties to encourage free movement of tourist as Zimbabwe by law does not have a free re entry visa. This was stopped now. Ok, it is the law, but it was IMO not a good move as tourism in Victoria Falls is now beginning to recover from at least two terrible years for the industry!
