Victoria Falls, also known by its indigenous name “Mosi-oa-Tunya” (The Smoke That Thunders), is one of the highest-volume waterfalls on the planet. Fed by the mighty Zambezi River, the falls plummet an astonishing 354 feet into the cavernous abyss of Batoka Gorge. Stand and bear witness: you are looking upon one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World.

After exploring the Kalahari Desert and the Makgadikgadi Pans National Park and witnessing the varied wildlife of the Okavango Delta, travelers on our Botswana Off the Beaten Path Safari have one final stop. The lush rainforest, staggering views, and cooling mists of Victoria Falls are the perfect bookend to an incredible journey.
