Victoria Falls & Botswana Classic
Victoria Falls | Chobe | Okavango Delta
People from around the world come to Victoria Falls to marvel at how the broad, placid and slow-moving Zambezi River violently becomes a raging torrent as it crashes down in a chasm, creating clouds of spray that billow back up into the sky, creating dancing rainbows.
This breath-taking event is accompanied by a clamerous roar and a fine mist of spray that curves up into the heavens above creating dancing rainbows.
The river is the great Zambezi River and the falls are the world’s largest waterfall, the Victoria Falls, which tumble into the Zambezi Gorge below.
This grand display also explains the Falls’ local name, Mosi-oa-Tunya, which means ‘the Smoke that Thunders’.
