About Victoria Falls
Victoria Falls (Mosi-oa-Tunya, the smoke that thunders) is the largest sheet of falling water on earth: the Zambezi, nearly two kilometres wide, dropping a hundred metres in a permanent storm of spray visible 20 km away. Rainforest paths face the full curtain from the Zimbabwean side; Devil's Pool dares swimmers to the lip from Zambia (in season). Sunset cruises, gorge swings, white-water rafting and helicopter flights orbit the spectacle, and Chobe's elephants are only an hour away, the natural grand finale to a Botswana safari.
