Walking Tours of Victoria Falls 

Victoria Falls is a waterfall located on the Zambezi River, on the border between Zambia and Zimbabwe. It is one of the largest waterfalls in the world, and is considered one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World. The local Tonga people call it “Mosi-oa-Tunya,” which means “The Smoke That Thunders.” The falls are approximately 1.7 kilometers wide and have a height of around 108 meters. The mist created by the falls can be seen from a great distance, and they are a popular tourist attraction in southern Africa.

Chat to us if you would like to pre-book this activity.

Zambezi Gorge Walks

Walk through ancient indigenous forests and down 230m into the dramatic gorge, next to the Zambezi River rapids.

Devils Pool / Visits to Livingstone Island

Devil’s Pool is located on the edge of Victoria Falls and is known for its breathtaking views. During the dry season when the water levels are low, visitors can swim in the pool, which is protected by a natural rock barrier. 

White Water Rafting

The Zambezi River is widely considered to be the very best White Water Rafting river in the world. A deep channeled, high volume river, the Zambezi has class 3 – 5 rapids interspersed with tranquil pools. And if rafting doesn’t appeal you, you can always opt for the more relaxing option of sitting on the Taita deck and watching the rafters go by!
