You step off the minivan into a spray-hung morning and the air tastes of river and stone. The Zambezi announces itself before you see it: a low thunder that grows into a roar as the trail drops through a green, dripping rainforest. On the Zambia side, the falls fling themselves over a 100‑meter basalt lip into the Zambezi Gorge, and the mist dares you to stand closer.
