Victoria Falls: Southern Africa’s land locked natural water wonder in accordance to Victoria Falls. David Livingstone was the first European to see this marvel. The intrepid Scots missionary and explorer waxed lyrically about these falls said that these scenes are so lovely and they must have been gazed upon by Angels in their flight. First time I visited Victoria Falls in 2004 … It was in the midst of a harsh drought and the Zambian side of the fall. My husband wanted to show me his childhood stomping ground because he was ex of Zambian. I was jaw droppingly unimpressed with the trickle of water and huge black basalt rocks and I think my reaction really ruined his ‘big reveal’ moment.
Now I have come to love this waterfall as passionately as the Cape Townians love their rock feature because I visited this Victoria Falls many times. Victoria Falls is just like a lady of many moods, in times of high water, March to April, she rages. Full to the brim, the water pounds the rocks below the fall creating a mist so dense that you cannot even see her face. The guests who are visiting the rainforest at Victoria Falls need all the water proofing they have muster if they want to stay dry?
Zambezi water levels start dropping from June while in September the Zambian side of the falls can be a mere trickle and not reduce more in 
December. The flip sides of low water level produce excellent conditions for white river rafting and it has to be said the Zambezi River. Which is called the best commercial white river of Southern Africa? If you go to the Falls and you are able bodied enough, it simply has to be done. I order to overcome the force of the water is something to be behold and enjoyed.
The Zimbabwe side of the Falls nearly always has water flowing over the lip. The poor Zambia got a raw topography deal on their side of Vic Falls or maybe it’s the Zambian hydro electric plant that reduces their water levels? If you want to see sufficiently impressive amounts of water fall pouring over the edge of Victoria Falls then visit between September and December and view it from the Zimbabwe side to get complete enjoy.
