Welcome to The Smoke That Thunders, Victoria Falls

Taking its place alongside the Pyramids and the Serengeti, Victoria Falls (Mosi-Oa-Tunya – the ‘smoke that thunders’) is one of Africa’s original blockbusters. It is one of Earth’s great spectacles. See it directly as a raging mile-long curtain of water, from a helicopter ride or peek over its edge from Devil's Pools; the sheer power and force of the falls is something that simply does not disappoint.
