Victoria Falls is the largest, most beautiful and most majestic waterfall on the planet, and is the Seventh Natural Wonder of the World as well as being a UNESCO World Heritage. A trip to the Southern Africa would not be complete without visiting this unforgettable place. But it isn’t just the one million litres of water that fall – per second – down a 108m drop along a 1.7km wide strip in the Zambezi Gorge that makes Victoria Falls so awesome; it’s the whole natural context in which the falls are located that makes Victoria Falls so special.

Jumping into the gorge, get drenched by the spray of the falls, raft along the rapids or cruise gently along the great Zambezi River. Whether it’s wildlife that attracts you or the chance to fill your life with wildness, this place is rare and extraordinary and yet easy and unspoilt. Victoria Falls is to be seen, heard, tested and touched: it is a treat that few other places in the world offer, a Must See Before You Die Spot.

Victoria Falls has a wet and dry season: when the river is higher and the falls fuller it’s the Wet and when the river is lower and the falls aren’t smothered in sprays it’s the Dry. The falls are spectacular at any time of the year, except if all you want to do is ride those famous rapids, in which case you want the river low, the rocks exposed and the rapids pumping. The weather is never too hot or too cold, and all else on offer – from fine dining to zipping across a border on a high wire – are also there year round. The high are June to August and Christmas, but April, with all the spray, is special too. Although Zimbabwe and Zambia share it, Victoria Falls is a place all of its own, which is why we give it its own space on this web.
