Victoria Falls: A Haven Where Pure Adventure Meets Tranquility

Picture Niagara Falls twice as tall and twice as wide, and you still won't be prepared for the spectacle of Victoria Falls. The locals refer to Victoria Falls as Mosi-oa-Tunya, meaning the smoke that thunders. The mighty Zambezi River hurls itself off the top of a 300-foot cliff into a gorge below—becoming one of the most fantastic sights of the natural world. Nothing can compare to the sight of the roaring water, the white mist dancing in the air, and a shimmering rainbow of light above the land. The spray from the falls can be seen up to 50 miles away.

Explore the extraordinary Victoria Falls

• The Zambezi River is one mile wide as it cascades off the 300-foot cliff.
• A lush rainforest borders the Falls and adds to its beauty.
• Walking along the bordering trails, warthogs, monkeys, and guinea fowl greet you from all corners of the rainforest.
• The grounds surrounding Victoria Falls are unspoiled by tourism, lending an authentic experience to all its visitors.

Experience an adrenaline rush of a lifetime at Victoria Falls

• Known as one of the world's best areas for white-knuckle activities, such as white-water rafting.
• Seek adventure on the highest commercial bungee jump in the world off the bridge that crosses the Zambezi River, connecting Zimbabwe with Zambia.
• Take the Flight of Angels in a small, four-seat airplane above the falls. Enjoy the rare opportunity to observe the rapids from a bird’s-eye view as you fly through the mist and enchantment of the Falls.

Enjoy the blissful serenity of Victoria Falls

• Rejuvenate yourself in the lap of luxury on one of Victoria Falls’ sunset cruises, with a cocktail in hand and the sunset melting along the horizon.
• Enjoy the tranquil areas of the Zambezi River and look for giraffe, elephant, buffalo, and lion perched along the banks.
• Golf lovers can enjoy the challenging course at the Elephant Hills Hotel, but beware of the monkeys, as they’ve been known to steal balls from the course. • Revive yourself during teatime at 4 pm in the Victoria Falls Hotel with a cup of tea on the outside terrace, and enjoy the most spectacular view in the area.
