From the Sidney Morning Herald and other Fairfax newspapers in Australia earlier this week, they have this headline: “Things to do in Victoria Falls, Zambia with these highlights: “The world's largest sheet of falling water is one of the world's seven natural wonders and a must-visit for thrill seekers, nature lovers and anyone wanting to rediscover their sense of wonder for our planet. The 1700-metre falls are wider than Niagara, higher than Iguazu, and unload 550 million litres of water a minute. Come to Africa without seeing them, and you'll live to regret it.

 

If doing a cruise in or around South Africa, it would be great to tie in a pre- or post-cruise trip to experience famed Victoria Falls. That's what we did two years ago. Full details, plus lots of pictures, can be seen in my live/blog connected below.

 

This profile also noted: "The best part about Victoria Falls is the multitude of ways in which you can admire them. From the Zambian side, there's an edge-of-the-world feeling to be had at the Eastern Cataract lookout point, or the sensation of walking through the falls (complete with a thorough soaking) while crossing the Knife Edge Bridge. You'll get the most drenched from March to June, when the Zambezi is at its highest."
