DAYS 1 & 2: VICTORIA FALLS
The Victoria Falls, a UNESCO World Heritage site forms the border between Zimbabwe and Zambia where the Zambezi River plunges 100m over basalt cliffs a deep gorge below. It is aptly named in local tongue as “The Smoke That Thunders” due to the amount of spray generated, resembling smoke from afar and wetting all who stand near it. This is Africa’s adventure activity capital and there is more than enough to keep everyone entertained
