Top 6 Things to do in Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe
Rainbows are cool. But what trumps rainbows? Moonbows. If you visit Victoria Falls during a full moon, the light of the moon through the the waterfall spray produces a lunar rainbow, or moonbow. More of a daredevil? Then try what’s been called the world’s best white-water rafting.

An awesome sight, roaring Waterfalls, lots of spray. At stages it felt like we were in a thundershower.
Take a heavy duty raincoat if you are not with a tour which usually provide them.
A must do. Not only is it beautiful and majestic but as one of the seven Wonders of the world - you can’t miss it.

"The smoke that thunders" is a local name for Africa's most famous waterfall thundering over a 100m-high cliff.

Definitely give yourself 2-3 hours to explore the park and see the Falls while you are in Livingstone! If you choose this side of the Falls, I'd suggest starting by hiking down to the Boiling Pot, then seeing the Falls from the eastern viewing point and finally walking across Knife Edge Bridge. The hike down to the Boiling Pot is about 15 minutes down and 25-30 minutes up. It isn't too difficult but make sure you have solid shoes so the experience isn't too painful. Also, if you do Knife Edge Bridge in the high season, be prepared to get soaked! I'd suggest renting a poncho and sandals from the stall right by the bridge so your clothes and shoes aren't soaked for the rest of the day. It's truly an unforgettable experience so don't miss out!

You can walk across this bridge and stamp another country in your passport once you cross from Zimbabwe to Zambia or vice versa. You will potentially see bungee jumpers from the bridge and some kayakers far below. If walking, you will probably be asked to buy various items from locals.

Great way to spend an hour, the kids loved it, they got to hold various snakes and chameleons. The guides are really friendly and knowledgeable.... Snake park please get a bigger outdoor enclosure for your chameleons and your tortoise looks really unhappy.

Elephant's Walk Shopping and Artist Village is a vibrant mix of local artists, retailers, artisan studios, all working within in the cool tropical garden courtyard. The funky Africa Cafe serves delicious light meals and drinks whilst the Nam Tok Restaurant upstairs offer afro asian traditional foods. There is a museum which shows the material and visual culture of the peoples of the region - entry is free. Crocodile Cage diving can be experienced, a visit with out local Nyanaga (witchdoctor) or you can just sit under the palm trees and watch the world go by!

Great to wander, browse and little pushing selling. This is not black market so priced higher but quality and standards better. Cool, shaded and lots to see. Nice cafe too.
