Overview
Victoria Falls
Victoria Falls, situated on the Zambezi River between Zambia and Zimbabwe, is a breathtaking natural wonder that captivates with its awe-inspiring beauty. Known as “The Smoke that Thunders,” the falls boast a stunning curtain of cascading water that plummets into a deep gorge, creating a spectacular display of mist and rainbows. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a spectacular sight of beauty and grandeur
Discovered by the explorer David Livingstone in 1855, Victoria Falls is one of the largest and most powerful waterfalls globally, spanning over 1,700 meters in width and reaching heights of up to 108 meters. The surrounding lush rainforest provides a vibrant backdrop to the roaring waters, offering a unique ecosystem filled with diverse flora and fauna.
One special vantage point is across the Knife-edge Bridge, where you 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, the Falls Bridge, Devil’s Pool and the Lookout Tree, both of which command panoramic views across the Main Falls.
