Victoria Falls, one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World, stands as a breathtaking spectacle of nature. Located on the border of Zimbabwe and Zambia, the falls offer a mesmerizing backdrop to an unforgettable safari experience. A Victoria Falls safari combines the awe-inspiring beauty of the falls with the excitement of exploring nearby national parks teeming with wildlife.
Known locally as Mosi-oa-Tunya, meaning "The Smoke That Thunders," Victoria Falls is a colossal curtain of water cascading down the Zambezi River. The surrounding area offers a rich diversity of wildlife and adventure activities, making it a perfect destination for those looking to blend natural beauty with thrilling experiences.
The best time to visit Victoria Falls is during the dry season, from May to October, when the falls are at their most dramatic and the wildlife viewing is exceptional. However, each season offers unique experiences:
