Why go
The largest sheet of falling water on earth, on the Zambezi.
The falls are at maximum volume between March and May, when spray can obscure the view entirely, and lowest between October and December when Devil's Pool opens. Both extremes are worth planning around.
Signature experiences
- Falls rainforest walk
- Devil's Pool in low water season
- Zambezi sunset cruise and bungy at the bridge
