Victoria Falls

The widest sheet of falling water on Earth - 1,708 metres of the Zambezi thundering into a gorge, throwing spray you can see for miles. "The smoke that thunders."

VFA airport · walking tour of the falls
Moderate. Fly into Victoria Falls (VFA, Zimbabwe) or Livingstone (Zambia); the falls are ~20 min out. Locally it's an easy walking tour of the rainforest paths, but most travellers need a visa and the trip is far-flung. May-September (dry season) gives the clearest views and best safari. Add a "Flight of Angels" helicopter or a sunset Zambezi cruise.
