Welcome to the adrenaline-packed adventure playground that is Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe. Located on the Zambezi River, this breathtaking natural wonder draws in visitors from around the world who come to witness the awe-inspiring power of the falls. But for those who are looking for a bit more excitement, Victoria Falls also offers a plethora of adventure activities that are sure to get your heart racing. From bungee jumping to white water rafting, there’s no shortage of thrilling experiences to be had.

Bungee Jumping

Take a leap of faith from the Victoria Falls Bridge, which is 111 meters high, and plummet towards the Zambezi River. The thrill of this activity is unbeatable and the view of the falls is breathtaking.

White Water Rafting

The Zambezi River is known for its rapids, and white water rafting is one of the best ways to experience them. The rapids range from grade three to five, making it a challenging and exhilarating activity.

Zip Lining

Fly over the Batoka Gorge and Zambezi River on a zip line, taking in the incredible views of the landscape below. This activity is perfect for those who want an adventure but are not ready for extreme sports.

Helicopter Tour

For a truly unforgettable experience, why not take a helicopter tour over the falls? This is a great way to get a bird’s eye view of the falls and the surrounding landscape and see the mighty Zambezi River from a whole new perspective.

Canoeing

Paddle down the Zambezi River and get up close to the wildlife that resides in the region, including elephants, hippos, and crocodiles. This is a great way to experience the beauty of Victoria Falls in a more relaxed manner.

The main attraction that Zambia is known for is Victoria Falls, located in Livingstone. These mighty falls are magnificent to behold and most visitors opt to view the falls from Mosi-O-Tunya Park or take a guided tour of Livingstone Island at the top of the falls.

For the more adventurous visitors, however, you can opt to swim in Devil’s Pool or Angel’s Pool, depending on the season. If you want to go for a dip in the Devil’s Pool, then you need to time it with the seasons. Devil’s Pool is only accessible during the dry season, which lasts from May to November. If the rains have come, then Angel’s Pool will be accessible instead of the Devil’s Pool. 

Devil’s Pool is right at the front of Victoria Falls on the Zambian side. Visitors can take a guided tour and go for a dip. There is a rock wall underneath the water, that prevents visitors from being swept over the falls. This is an excellent place to have both a memorable experience and get some unforgettable photos.

You probably think Canadian winters are a synonym for cold, dreary, and grey weather, don’t you?

It might not be easy to find Canadian destinations where you might actually be able to enjoy decent weather during the winter season, but if there’s one place that might offer up that chance for you—it’s Victoria, British Columbia!

The capital of the province of British Columbia is also its southernmost city, and it’s known as the mildest winter city in the entire country. Granted, you won’t be able to soak up rays at the beach in Victoria during December, January, and February—but chances are you’ll be able to do outdoor activities comfortably.

The “City of Gardens” tends to see high temperatures ranging between 45 and 50 degrees F during the winter, with overnight lows rarely dropping below freezing. The driest city in coastal BC, you’re also not likely to be completely washed out even if it does rain.

This will allow you to spend plenty of time exploring Victoria’s beautiful outdoor scenery, even when traveling there in winter. Explore the city’s Victorian architecture as well as its beautiful parks and botanical gardens—such as the stunning Beacon Hill Park.

You might have to wear a jacket, but rest assured this is as good as it gets in winter in Canada. 

So, if you’re trying to decide where to travel in Canada in the upcoming months, Victoria might just be the perfect choice for you!

Have you ever dreamed of seeing Victoria Falls, but didn’t want to shell out a lot for the experience? You don’t have to stay at expensive lodges along the Zambezi River to experience the magic of the falls and the colonial architecture of Livingstone, Zambia. There are a variety of budget hostels that offer dorms, private rooms, and campgrounds. 

Jollyboys Backpackers

Jollyboys is not your typical hostel. It has a pool with a bar and a sunken lounge zone. It’s a beautiful place and makes its visitors want to stay for weeks—and many do. There are private rooms, individual cottages, dorms, and a small campground for those on a tight budget. It’s about $24 a night for a private room, with a washroom. 

Fawlty Towers

The name itself says it all. The guesthouse is designed for everyone to have fun at, just like in the sitcom of the same name. It doesn’t have a campground, but it does have 24 rooms, a large pool, and a nice bar to enjoy some sundowners in. Rooms here are around $26 for private accommodation.

Each hostel offers a variety of tours to the falls, rafting on the Zambezi, and safaris in neighboring Botswana.

Waterfalls are such a mesmerizing thing to look at. These five are all unique and special in some way.

Bigar Falls, Romania

The stunning cascade waterfalls in Romania are beyond stunning. When you visit, you will feel like you are on another planet. Everything is so green and calming. The way  the water falls from the cliff is a very unique moment.

Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe

If the path ever takes you to Zimbabwe, don’t forget to visit the Victoria Falls. It is on the list of the Seven Natural Wonders in the World, and for many reasons. This waterfall is considered as the biggest one by height and width.

Angel Falls, Venezuela

Nature lovers and adventurers go to Venezuela only to visit the Angel Waterfalls. This is officially the tallest and highest one in the world. Such a stunning view!

Kaieteur Falls, Guyana

Another record-winning waterfall. The Kaieteur Falls is the largest single drop waterfall in the world thanks to the large volume of water. There are so many picturesque sites here that you’ll be mesmerized for life.
