Day 2
Tour of the Victoria Falls (Zambian Side) and Rhino Drive in Mosi-Oa-Tunya National Park
Breakfast at Maramba River Lodge, followed by a guided tour of the Victoria Falls from the Zambian side.
The Victoria Falls (also known as Mosi-oa-Tunya, "Thundering Smoke" in local Lozi language) is one of the world's largest waterfalls with a width of 1,708 m and is one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the world, protected by UNESCO. The falls are formed where the full width of the river plummets in a single vertical drop into a transverse chasm 1,708 meters wide, carved along a fracture zone in the basalt plateau. The depth of the chasm, called the First Gorge, varies from 80 metres on the Zimbabwean side to 108 metres in the centre (Zambian side). The only outlet from the First Gorge is a 110-metre-wide gap about two-thirds of the way across the width of the falls from the western end (called “The Boiling Pot”). The whole volume of the river pours into the Victoria Falls gorges from this narrow cleft, forming astonishing views and breathtaking sceneries. The region around it (the “Mosi-Oa-Tunya” National Park) is inhabited by several species of plants and wild animals.
Own arrangements for lunch (either at the lodge or in any other restaurant in Livingstone) and afternoon Rhino Experience in the Mosi-Oa-Tunya National Park, aiming to find the last remaining white Rhinos in Zambia. Dinner in town or at the lodge not included.
