The Victoria Falls or Mosi-oa-Tunya (the Smoke that Thunders) is one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World and the most popular tourist attraction in the region. Located on the Zambezi River between the countries of Zambia and Zimbabwe, the Falls is the widest falling sheet of water on Earth, with up to 600 million liters rushing over the 110 meter high edge every minute. The impact of the tumbling water creates a permanent cloud of mist that can be seen for miles around. A multitude of birds, insects and small animals thrive in the wet lush rain-forest vegetation.
The Victoria Falls forms part of two national parks, offering remarkable Big Five game viewing opportunities, a multitude of activities for both the leisure seeker and adrenaline junkie, and accommodation options to suit all tastes and pockets.
Best time to visit Victoria Falls
Victoria Falls has a lovely warm climate year round, with temperatures of between 25°C – 35°C on average.
The water is at its most spectacular between February and May and the thundering flow is truly awe-inspiring. Although still amazing, the water flow is much smaller after the dry season and the Zambian side can sometimes dry up completely. It is, however, a relatively easy process to cross over to the Zimbabwean side of the falls where the water flows year round.
June – August is probably the best time to visit with great weather, fantastic wildlife viewing and lots of water pouring over the falls.
