Embrace the Majesty of Victoria Falls

As the sun rises over Livingstone, the air is filled with anticipation and the promise of adventure. The clear skies and warm temperatures make it the perfect day to explore one of the world’s most awe-inspiring natural wonders: Victoria Falls. Known locally as Mosi-oa-Tunya, or “The Smoke That Thunders,” this UNESCO World Heritage site offers a breathtaking spectacle of nature’s power and beauty.

Start your day with a Guided Tour of the falls, available from 8:00 AM to 11:00 AM or 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM. This tour takes you to the Boiling Point, where you can witness the sheer force of the water as it cascades down the cliffs. As you walk through the lush rainforest, the mist from the falls creates a magical atmosphere, and the Knife Bridge offers a thrilling vantage point to view the falls in all their glory. With bottled water and snacks provided, you can focus on soaking in the experience without a care in the world.

“An amazing and thrilling experience. Never thought I would be so close to the falls, much less right in them. The guides made me feel completely comfortable to engage in this activity.” - Reviewed at 2024-09-03

Adventure Awaits at Livingstone Island

The highlight of this tour is the opportunity to swim in the Devil’s Pool, a natural infinity pool perched on the edge of the falls.

This adventure is not for the faint-hearted, but for those who dare, it promises an unparalleled thrill. The guides are experienced and prioritize safety, ensuring you can enjoy the experience to the fullest. The small group size allows for a more intimate experience, and the chance to capture stunning photos that will be the envy of all your friends.
