HIGHLIGHTS AT VICTORIA FALLS:
Victoria Falls is one of the natural wonders of the world and a World Heritage site. The Victoria Falls topples over a sheer 100 metre (330 feet) drop. It forms a mile-wide (1,609 metre) curtain of water that is as spectacular as its reputation and more! It can be viewed from numerous viewpoints. It is the widest curtain of falling water in the world, and during the months of February to April (after the rainy season), the volume of water cascades at over 500 000 cubic metres per second into the gorge below. This results into a spray that can be seen from more than 30km (20 miles) away and from there it derives its local African name - Mosi-Oa-Tunya - ‘The Smoke that Thunders’. The Victoria Falls are fed by the steadily flowing Zambezi River that originates in the mountain regions between Angola and Zambia. This river reaches the Indian Ocean in Mozambique. The Zambezi River is 1,687 miles long (2,700 km) and is Africa’s fourth largest river. See our Map of Victoria Falls for accommodation options.

The best view of the falls is from the air (especially on a microlight). A flight by helicopter over the falls is called 'The flight of Angels', named after David Livingstone's now famous diary entry, "Scenes so lovely must have been gazed upon by angels in flight."

The Victoria Falls can be visited from both Zimbabwe and Zambia.

BEST TIME TO GO:
Dry Season: May to October is usually dry and September and October allows better photo opportunities at Victoria Falls as there is much less spray, but the torrent is slightly less impressive. Game viewing is also better in the dry season.
Rainy Season: It usually rains anywhere from November through to April, creating a hot and humid climate. The falls are at their peak and most spectacular by the end of this summer rainy season.
