Victoria Falls
Victoria Falls, a town located in the western part of Zimbabwe, is the gateway to the massive waterfall bordering Zambia and Zimbabwe, and is considered to be one of the world’s largest waterfalls, commonly known as the “smoke that thunders”. More than five hundred million cubic meters of water per minute plummet over the edge, over a width of nearly two kilometres, into a gorge over one hundred meters below. This unparalleled display of nature is sure to take your breath away.

The Big Five and 100 other species of mammals are found in the savanna grasslands and woodlands of Hwange. The park boasts the largest diversity of mammals in comparison with the world’s national parks. Regular sightings of cheetah, leopard, and lion, and the park’s large elephant population are to be expected. The park is also home to one of Africa’s largest populations of the endangered wild dog as well as rare species such as roan and sable. The park is also a haven for birdwatchers, as 500 bird species have been recorded here.
