Devil's Pool is adjacent to the famous Livingstone Island situated on the edge of the Victoria Falls. Guests can choose to enjoy an exhilarating swim to the edge of the falls during their Livingstone Island visit. The Devil's Pool is usually open between mid-August and mid-January - depending on Zambezi water levels. Livingstone Island tours are accessible through Tongabezi Lodge.

"Life on the Edge" it definitely is. Every adventurous adult should have this experience on their list of "must do's". First swim a section of the fast flowing Zambezi and then across the swirling Devils pool itself and look over the edge of Victoria Falls itself to where the mighty Zambezi thunders right past you into the chasm below if you dare. Safety swimmer is there to advise and assist (and hang onto your feet as you venture ever closer to the edge of Victoria falls and peer over) but the adventurous spirit to attempt it is all down to you. You must be 17 or over. I am an average swimmer in my mid-60's and felt well supervised enough to attempt it. Lets be honest - it would be bad for their business to "lose" anyone so you are in very good hands. Only available in low water - usually mid august until the rains start (October I think). I was so lucky to have gone in late July this year to find it open early due to last years poor rainfall and therefore low water levels. There is no other experience like this in the world.

My partner and I and a couple friends had a tour of the gallery and workspaces by the lovely Yandey. I was really impressed by the cultural teachings about marriage that were depicted and expressed through the artwork, as well as the amazing projects that are being done with the children in the community. There are plenty of gorgeous pieces of art, crafts and books to look at and purchase. What a wonderful family of artists!

Words truly cannot describe the day of exhilaration and fun I have had. Many thanks to Mulele and all who took care of me today! I did the unlimited adrenaline package with free helicopter ride (included gorge swing, abseiling, and zip lining in two different positions). The gorge swing was definitely the highlight, so much so that I did it 3 times! The one limiting factor for the swing and abseiling, is the hike back up afterwards, but the reward was well worth it. I felt entirely safe the whole time. We crossed into Zimbabwe for the helicopter ride and were able to see the whole falls, including the rainbow (which shows when the sun is shining). Mulele made the whole process of crossing customs and moving from one activity to the next extremely smooth.

Walked along the falls on the Zambia side which was spectacular as expected. Got wet but we expected to do, visited in February which is said to be the best time because later when the falls are in full flow you can't see as much because of the spray. We then flew over the falls in a helicopter which completed the visit. Great experience.

This popular museum contains Zambia’s oldest collection of fascinating samples from the area’s prehistory, as well as photographs, musical instruments and memorabilia belonging to Livingstone, the first white man to view Victoria Falls.

We enjoyed our visit to the museum a most enjoyable morning. The Museum follows the start of African culture right up to the present day with good and well-presented exhibitions. One room is entirely devoted to Dr David Livingstone and was very interesting as he discovered and named Victoria Falls after Queen Victoria and the town and the museum was named after him. Great museum with friendly staff recommend a visit if you're in Livingstone

Livingstone Reptile Park boasts a collection of Livingstone’s most notorious reptiles. Our crocodiles have been rescued from the Zambezi River where they were posing a danger to both humans and themselves. Gwembe Safaris were asked to capture these animals to prevent any further threat to people or their livestock. Had we not done so they could have been destroyed. Getting close to these animals never ceases to invoke feelings of fascination, respect and fear.

Besides the man-eating crocs, the knowledgeable and patient guide will show you turtles, invite you to hold a baby croc (if you wish) and show you the collection of poisonous snakes (no, you dont touch these!). Enjoyable and educational, and very moderately priced.
