Victoria Falls Tours & Trips
What if you could see Victoria Falls and do a proper safari? You'll hear the falls before you see them - they're that loud - then spot the Big Five in Kruger, take sunset cruises on the Zambezi, search for elephants in Chobe, explore Johannesburg's Apartheid Museum, maybe even visit the Okavango Delta, and camp under African skies. This is the Africa you've imagined.

Best places to start your Victoria Falls tour
Victoria Falls town serves as the main starting point, launching 28 of our recent tours from there. About 20 tours began in Cape Town and another 19 from Johannesburg, with some travelers coming through Nairobi or Windhoek too. Looking at our booking data, aim to reserve about 79 days ahead - that's particularly important for the 8-day safari tours covering the falls plus wildlife areas in Zambia, Zimbabwe and Botswana. These multi-country trips fill up fast in peak season. Our guests find three days lets them properly explore both sides of the falls, take a helicopter ride for the aerial view and fit in some wildlife watching. The KAZA visa makes it easy to cross between Zambia and Zimbabwe - you can walk the knife-edge bridge on the Zambian side and check out the main viewpoints in Zimbabwe without visa hassles.

Best time to visit Victoria Falls
- Winter 2025 / 2026
Winter makes everything click at Victoria Falls. Our 8-day safari packages let you see the falls clearly plus catch amazing wildlife in Chobe National Park. The drier months mean elephants gather at the river - you'll spot whole herds swimming across during our evening cruises. The falls run lighter this season, so you can explore more viewpoints without getting drenched. It's also when you can swim in Devil's Pool right at the falls' edge, which our travelers say gives them quite the story to tell back home.

- Spring 2026
Spring brings rising waters and that famous mist - there's a reason locals call it 'The Smoke that Thunders.' Our jet-boat dinner cruises really shine now; you'll weave between islands while our chefs work their magic in the galley. We've found combining Kruger and Victoria Falls works perfectly in spring's mild weather. Many guests go for helicopter rides this season since the increasing spray creates these incredible rainbows throughout the gorge.

- Summer 2026
Summer shows off the falls at full power, with spray you can spot from miles away. Our multi-country safaris adapt well to this intense season. The Zimbabwe side gives you 16 different viewing spots through the rain forest, and our guides time the visits just right for photos. When the mist gets intense, we mix in cultural visits to local villages and homestays in Limpopo, giving you a nice break from the constant moisture.

- Fall / Autumn 2026
Autumn sees water levels dropping, and we've crafted tours that blend wildlife and falls viewing beautifully. Our travelers often pick packages with walking safaris in Matobo National Park to track rhinos before seeing the falls. The Black Mambas anti-poaching unit tours really connect with guests - you'll learn directly from this all-female ranger team. We also run tours combining mokoro canoe trips in the Okavango Delta with falls visits, taking advantage of pleasant temperatures and good wildlife viewing. From what our safari travelers tell us, Lochinvar Safaris really shines with their personal touch. Their guides Mark, Brown, Maggie and also Fines consistently make each trip special - they know exactly how to handle the occasional power cuts you might face in Zambia, and they're quick to sort out comfortable backup plans. Over at Across Africa Tours, Hilmar and Kim get lots of praise for their deep knowledge of Kruger and Victoria Falls. They really help travelers understand the wildlife, geography and also local culture. That said, we've heard from some guests that the company could improve their planning and how they keep in touch before the trip. These tour companies show two different sides of African safari operations - Lochinvar manages the practical challenges well and puts their guests first, while Across Africa has excellent guides but needs to work on their behind-the-scenes organization. When you're looking at safaris in this region, it's worth knowing these differences since they can affect your experience quite a bit. The guides make a real difference on these trips - they're the ones who spot that leopard in the distance, explain how the ecosystem works and also help sort things out when plans need adjusting. Both companies have skilled guides, but they operate quite differently in terms of overall service delivery.

When's the best time to check out Victoria Falls?
You'll find the falls change dramatically between wet and dry seasons giving you totally different experiences. The water's at its most powerful around March-April which is spectacular but honestly the mist can make it hard to see everything. If you want clear views head there September through November during the drier months. And here's a cool tip - if you're keen to experience Devil's Pool that amazing natural infinity pool right on the edge you'll need to visit during low water between August and December.
Which side should I visit - Zimbabwe or Zambia?
You really can't go wrong with either side they both offer something special. Zimbabwe gives you the bigger picture with views of about 75% of the falls and you've got 16 different viewpoints connected by these beautiful rainforest paths that stay accessible even when the water's high. Zambia gets you closer to the action especially at Devil's Cataract and Main Falls plus you can visit Livingstone Island where David Livingstone first saw this incredible sight. Your choice really depends on what kind of experience you're after.
What else can I do besides just looking at the falls?
There's actually tons of adventure waiting for you beyond just viewing the falls. The white water rafting through Batoka Gorge is incredible - you can do it in low water (August-December) or high water (January-February and June-July). If you're feeling brave try the 111-meter bungee jump off Victoria Falls Bridge or take on the gorge swing. The helicopter flights are absolutely worth it giving you this mind-blowing aerial view of just how massive the falls are. For something more cultural head to Mukuni Village near Livingstone where you can learn about local traditions and might even meet some rescued lions and cheetahs.
