Have you ever wished to explore the beauty of a free falling waterfall, but just have never mustered up the courage to go out and explore the world? Well, today that’s all going to change as today is the day you’re going to muster up all of the courage in the world, book a flight to The Zambezi River in Southern Africa and explore the mesmerizing Victoria Falls.
Deemed as the largest waterfall in the world, it can boast to all of the other magical waterfalls around the world as this one, at its base is 1,708 meters wide and 108 meters high. The Victoria Falls stretches between Zambia and Zimbabwe, making it unique in its own right spanning not one, but two countries.
Many moons ago, The Victoria Falls was described by the Kololo Tribe as ‘the smoke that thunders’. Needless to say, the local tribe that lived near The Falls during the 1800’s could hear it from miles away, and was certainly mesmerized by its awe-inspiring beauty. Rightfully so, when you stand on The Victoria Falls Bridge, or take a Micro-light or fixed wing flight you certainly can see not only has massive The Falls is, but how its beauty is emulated as far as the eye can see.
And if you’re really a thrill-seeker, than go bunji jumping where you’ll get a 360° view of The Falls as you soar through the sky. Whether up high, or down low, this free falling falls is one for your bucket list if you love to take in the beauty of the natural world.
