Zambia: What To Do

Swim on the edge
A dip in Devil’s Pool lets you peer over a 103-metre-high precipice onto the thundering Victoria Falls below. The pool’s surreal beauty is one-of-a-kind and no visitor to Livingstone should miss the adrenalin rush of a dip here.

Brave the white water
Don’t miss the world famous white water rafting. Awesome grade 5 rapids all year round. Rated as some of the best on the globe.

Salute sunrise on a cruise
Nothing compares to game viewing from a luxury cruiseboat as the bush awakens at dawn. Followed by a guided canoe adventure to a private island off the Zambezi River for a delicious breakfast.

See it all from the air
The Flight of Angels is an unforgettable helicopter journey offering unrivalled views, photographic opportunities and panoramic vistas of the Falls in the context of the Zambezi National Park.

Tour a natural wonder
Be hosted by an informed local guide as you make your way on foot around the World Heritage Site known locally as ‘Mosi oa Tunya’ or ‘The Smoke that Thunders.’
