What To Do in Victoria Falls

What are the must-see attractions at Victoria Falls?

Victoria Falls is rightly famous for its awe-inspiring beauty and thrilling activities. I've seen firsthand the wonder in our guests' eyes as they experience this natural masterpiece, and there's truly something for everyone.

  • Witness the Majestic Falls: Naturally, the falls themselves are the star of the show! Consider a guided tour from both the Zambian and Zimbabwean sides for the full experience. I always recommend allowing enough time to appreciate the falls from different vantage points – the viewpoints offer incredibly varied perspectives.
  • Zambezi River Adventures: The Zambezi River is a playground for adrenaline junkies. Whitewater rafting is a major draw, and the scenery is simply breathtaking. For the truly daring, the Victoria Falls Bridge offers an unforgettable bungee jumping experience.
  • Soar Above the Falls: A helicopter or microlight flight provides a unique and spectacular perspective on the sheer scale and power of Victoria Falls. Our guests often tell us this is the highlight of their trip!
  • Livingstone Island & Devil's Pool: A boat trip to Livingstone Island, culminating in a swim in the Devil's Pool (a natural rock pool right on the edge of the falls), is an exhilarating experience – if you're brave enough! Keep in mind that access is seasonal and dependent on water levels.

Can I experience a safari near Victoria Falls?

Absolutely! While Victoria Falls is primarily known for the waterfall, it's also a gateway to incredible wildlife encounters. We often combine a visit to the Falls with a safari in nearby national parks.

  • Hwange National Park (Zimbabwe): This is one of the best places in Africa to see elephants, and it's relatively close to Victoria Falls. We can arrange day trips or overnight stays.
  • Chobe National Park (Botswana): A short drive from Victoria Falls, Chobe is famous for its large elephant herds and diverse wildlife. River cruises are a fantastic way to experience the park.
  • Private Game Reserves: Several private reserves offer more exclusive safari experiences with luxury lodges and expert guides.

What should kosher travellers know about visiting Victoria Falls?

Kosher travel requires careful planning, especially in remote locations like Victoria Falls. While there are currently no dedicated kosher restaurants in Victoria Falls, we've developed strategies to ensure our guests enjoy delicious and compliant meals throughout their stay.

  • Pre-arranged Kosher Meals: We work with local caterers and chefs to provide pre-packaged, glatt-kosher meals. These can be prepared and frozen in advance and transported to your accommodation.
  • Self-Catering Options: Some lodges and hotels offer self-catering facilities, allowing you to prepare your own meals using kosher ingredients. We can assist with sourcing kosher products in advance.
  • "Kosherising" Kitchens: In some cases, we can arrange for a local kitchen to be "kosherised" under rabbinical supervision, allowing for on-site kosher meal preparation. This is usually for larger groups.
  • Dietary Requirements: Always inform us of any specific dietary requirements or allergies well in advance so we can make the necessary arrangements. We understand the importance of strict adherence to kashrut.

Are there cultural experiences available near Victoria Falls?

Yes, Victoria Falls is situated in a region with a rich cultural heritage, and there are opportunities to learn about the local communities. I believe that responsible tourism should also celebrate the cultural richness of the place we are visiting.

  • Village Tours: Visit local villages to learn about traditional lifestyles, crafts, and customs. These tours provide an authentic glimpse into the lives of the people who call this area home.
  • Cultural Performances: Enjoy traditional dance and music performances showcasing the region's vibrant cultural heritage.
  • Craft Markets: Browse local craft markets for unique souvenirs and support local artisans.
