Victoria Falls Zambia Side Tour from Livingstone, Zambia

Victoria Falls Tour - Zambia Side

The Zambian side of Victoria Falls offers a more intimate experience compared to the Zimbabwe side. You walk along paths close to the gorge edge and cross the famous Knife Edge Bridge, where the spray from the falls often soaks you completely. The views from this side are dramatic and the feeling of the falls' power is unforgettable.
