About Victoria Falls
Victoria Falls is a town in western Zimbabwe, located near the majestic Victoria Falls, one of the largest waterfalls in the world. The official currency used in Zimbabwe is the Zimbabwean Dollar, although US Dollars are widely accepted. The town offers a range of accommodation options, from luxury hotels to budget-friendly guesthouses, catering to all types of travelers. Visitors can enjoy a variety of activities such as bungee jumping, white-water rafting, and sunset cruises on the Zambezi River. The local cuisine is a mix of traditional African dishes and international fare, with plenty of options to suit all tastes.
When to visit
The best time to visit Victoria Falls is during the dry season from May to October when the water levels are at their highest, offering the most impressive views of the falls. The weather is cooler during this time, making it ideal for outdoor activities such as hiking and wildlife safaris. The wet season from November to April brings heavy rainfall and higher temperatures, but also lush green landscapes and the opportunity to see the falls at their fullest. It's important to note that some activities may be limited during the wet season due to the high water levels.
Getting around
Getting around Victoria Falls is relatively easy, with taxis, rental cars, and shuttle services available for transportation within the town and to nearby attractions. Walking is also a popular option, especially for exploring the town center and getting to the Victoria Falls National Park. For longer distances, such as day trips to Chobe National Park in Botswana, guided tours and private transfers are recommended. The town is compact and pedestrian-friendly, making it convenient to navigate on foot.
Traveller tips
When visiting Victoria Falls, be sure to pack sunscreen, insect repellent, and comfortable walking shoes for exploring the falls and surrounding areas. It's advisable to carry cash in small denominations for tipping and small purchases, as credit card acceptance may be limited. Respect the local customs and traditions, such as dressing modestly when visiting cultural sites and interacting with the local community. Stay hydrated and take precautions against mosquito bites, especially during the wet season. Lastly, don't forget to capture the breathtaking views of Victoria Falls from various viewpoints and enjoy the stunning sunsets over the Zambezi River.
