Victoria Falls -our National Pride

Victoria is situated between Zimbabwe and Zambia. However, the main falls are on the Zimbabwean side. The local Tonga people who are the inhabitants of the area call it Mosi-oa-Tunya, meaning the smoke that thunders. History records that a Scottish explorer by the name David Livingstone was the first European to have view of the falls.

Victoria Falls is considered to be largest falls in the world ahead of Niagara falls in the USA. This claim is based on a width of 1,708 meters and a height of 108 meters, forming the largest sheet of falling water in the world.

The falls’ maximum flow rate compares well with that of other major waterfalls. In Zimbabwe, the falls are surrounded by exotic hotels and lodges. There are many places and activities you will enjoy when you visit Victoria Falls. Come to Zimbabwe and sample our traditional dishes and be intoxicated with our hospitality and traditional dances.
