Victoria Falls Travel Tips & Guide

All Victoria Falls Articles

Highlights of Victoria Falls
Africa's most impressive waterfall is also teh tallest one in the world, where water from the Zambezi River surges over the edge and crashes over a kilometer below. Wade into the pools on the water's edge or take it in from miles away, where the roar of the falls can still be heard and the mist towers above the landscape.

A visit to Victoria Falls is a staple part of any trip to Zambia, Botswana, or Zimbabwe and makes for a great extension tour to any itinerary.

Visit Livingstone Islands, where 19th century African explorer David Livingstone first caught a glimpse of the falls and named them in honor of the British Queen Victoria. Their indigenous name is "Mosi oa-Tunya" ("the smoke that thunders").

A luxury Victoria Falls tour offers travelers a way to experience the Falls in absolute comfort, including plush accommodations and private access to the waterfall.
