Victoria Falls
Victoria Falls – Zimbabwe
Victoria Falls is the largest curtain of falling water and one of the greatest natural wonders on planet Earth. So immense is the volume of water that drops over the Falls (500 million litres per minute at full flow) that the spray which results can be seen from many kilometres away. Victoria Falls is Zimbabwe’s world’s famous contribution to the world’s great attractions and one of the most impressive natural wonders of the world – you’ll be swept away by its magnificence. You can enjoy a walking trail through the rainforest taking in the Victoria Falls beauty. Don't just go to see Victoria Falls but also play in and around it! Victoria Falls is Africa’s adventure capital. Test your fear of heights by bungi jumping off the railway bridge. If that doesn't get your adrenalin pumping then strap on a life jacket and board a rubber dingy for some exciting white water river rafting! For the extra brave you can go it alone on a body board! To fully appreciate the incredible size of Victoria Falls and the awesome power of the water as it carves into the deep zig zagging gorges for eight kilometers, one must see it from the air. Micro-light and fixed wing flights are available. The breathtaking sight of this magnificent natural phenomena, seen in all its glory from the air, is unforgettable. Victoria Falls town was built on tourism and has now developed into an archetypal tourist trap. Fortunately, the star attraction is safely cordoned off by a real jungle of its own creation. To walk along the paths through the spray-generated rainforests that flank the gorge, you'd never suspect the existence of anything other than the monumental waterfall that's giving you such a good soaking. For something really special, time your visit to coincide with the rising of the full moon when the park stays open later to allow you to witness the magical lunar rainbow over the falls. The town is quickly becoming the greatest adrenalin capital-cum-tourist playground. Heartstoppers include scenic flights, white-water rafting, one of the world's highest bungee jumps and parachuting. If the batteries in your pacemaker are on the tired side, the walk along the Zambezi above the falls is excellent and is packed with wildlife. Don't take this walk too lightly; you may see warthog, crocodile, hippo, and even elephant, buffalo and lion. Avoid walking too close to the shore - the crocs are thick along the riverbank and can appear without warning. Victoria Falls doesn’t only offer spectacular views, but also offers several hotels and lodges as well ranging from luxury to budget accommodations.
