More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You arrive to the low rumble of the Zambezi and a cool spray that finds the skin—Victoria Falls frames the first impression, and Explorers Village sits a short, easy walk from that noise and mist. Dome tents line compact overland pads, and from the dining area you look out over natural bush that stages daily visits from vervet monkeys and the occasional impala.

Expect spray and slippery trails
Bring a lightweight waterproof or poncho for the rainforest trail—the falls’ spray soaks trails and camera gear quickly.

Local craft markets and tips for guides are easiest to pay with small notes in ZWL or USD; ATMs are available in town but can be intermittent.
Malaria precautions advised
Consult your doctor about prophylaxis before travel; use mosquito repellent and sleep under nets if provided.
Time activities around light
Early morning and late afternoon offer cooler temperatures for game drives and the best light for photography near the falls.
Sturdy walking shoes
Grippy shoes handle wet rainforest paths and uneven game-drive tracks.
Lightweight rain jacket or poncho
