Romance at the majestic Mosi-oa-Tunya
Victoria Falls, or Mosi-oa-Tunya ( The Smoke that Thunders) is well known as one of the magnificent seven natural wonders of the world. People from all over the world flock to view the largest waterfall in the world. While Victoria Falls is not the highest or the widest, the combination of both makes it the largest! The curtain of water that plunges into the gorge is created by the Zambezi river’s considerable width. The beauty that is Victoria Falls is shared by Zambia and Zimbabwe. With the introduction of the KAZA univisa, which allows visitors to purchase a single visa but visit both countries, the majestic Victoria Falls can be viewed from both sides!
Victoria Falls is a well known adventure capital where sedate Falls tours are enjoyed alongside adrenaline pumping white water rafting and bungee jumping. What is less well know is what an amazing honeymoon destination Victoria Falls is. There are stunning safari lodges set on the banks of the Zambezi river, with the Smoke that Thunders in the distance. Even getting married here would be a magical affair!
