This natural pool is located on the edge of the falls and for obvious reasons is only available during the drier months.

6.. Take a tour of the Victoria Falls Bridge. The bridge offers panoramic views of the falls and the Batoka Gorge below.
7. For the adventurous, there’s white-water rafting on the mighty Zambezi River. The Batoka Gorge rapids make it one of the most popular rafting in the world.
8. Experience a close encounter with an elephant. Observe these gentle giants responsibly and ethically.
9. Take in the local culture and enjoy the myriad arts and crafts. Learn about the traditions, customs, and daily life of the indigenous people living in the area.
