The enduring appeal of Victoria Falls is unrivalled in global and African tourism, offering nostalgia, environmental conservation and geological fascination. A World Heritage Site and one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World, the Victoria Falls is the largest waterfall in the world, created continuously as the mighty Zambezi River makes a sudden kilometre wide drop and plunges over 100m into a gorge. Two national parks, Victoria Falls National Park and Zambezi National Park, adjoin the Falls site. The locals named the Falls, Mosi-oa-Tunya, the Smoke that Thunders. In this region you can enjoy game drives, white river rafting and the beauty of the Falls. One of the most sought-after activities is the Flight of Angels. This is a beautiful scenic flight over Victoria Falls and is a must-see!

About the Victoria Falls

Victoria Falls presents a spectacular sight of awe-inspiring beauty and grandeur on the Zambezi River, forming the border between Zambia and Zimbabwe. It was described by the Kololo tribe living in the area in the 1800s as ‘Mosi-oa-Tunya’ – ‘The Smoke that Thunders’. In more modern terms Victoria Falls is known as the greatest curtain of falling water in the world.

Columns of spray can be seen from miles away as, at the height of the rainy season, more than five hundred million cubic meters of water per minute plummet over the edge, over a width of nearly two kilometres, into a gorge over one hundred meters below.

The wide, basalt cliff over which the falls thunder, transforms the Zambezi from a placid river into a ferocious torrent cutting through a series of dramatic gorges.

Facing the Falls is another sheer wall of basalt, rising to the same height, and capped by mist-soaked rain forest. A path along the edge of the forest provides the visitor prepared to brave the tremendous spray, with an unparalleled series of views of the Falls.

One special vantage point is across the Knife-edge Bridge, where visitors can have the finest view of the Eastern Cataract and the Main Falls as well as the Boiling Pot, where the river turns and heads down the Batoka Gorge. Other vantage points include Livingstone Island, Devils Pool and the Lookout Tree, both of which command panoramic views across the Main Falls.
