No one has ever wondered why the Victoria Falls is listed as one of the only Seven Natural Wonders of the World.
Experience The local people call it Mosi-oa-Tunya, “The smoke that thunders,” because something magnificent happens when the river is high & the spray towers in the air while water gushes down like falling thunder.
The Victoria Falls is 1,708 meters wide & with an average of 550,000 cubic meters of water plummeting over the edge every minute, it is by far the largest curtain of water in the world. Visitors travel from all around the globe to catch a glimpse of this spectacular sighting.
The Victoria Falls is set between Zimbabwe & Zambia, making it accessible to view from both sides (visa obtained upon arrival). Guests can also easily combine a Victoria Falls adventure with a safari to Hwange, Mana Pools or Botswana for a well-rounded African holiday.

If you are feeling adventurous, why not go for a swim at the edge of The Falls? (season dependent) Devil’s Pool at Livingstone Island has a good reputation & never fails to impress thrill-seekers or Insta-lovers.
When To Travel If you’re planning a trip to Victoria Falls, the best time to visit is during ‘High Water’ season - from February to July, directly after the region's summer rains, when you'll see the world's largest sheet of falling water flowing at its greatest volume.
‘Low Water’ runs between August & January &is at its lowest between November & early December. This is the time when there is very little spray, but river rafting &swimming at Devil’s Pool are both wonderful activities to experience during low season. Whenever you visit, the Victoria Falls attractions and activities will keep you mesmerised!
