It is a wonder to see Victoria Falls, but swimming in Devil's Pool makes the experience far, far more immersive. This pool is only accessible during the dry season. I visited at the end of December when the water was low. It is best to book the tour as far in advance as possible. The tour begins at the Livingston Hotel in Zambia.

Highly highly recommend the Devils Pool if your ever in...
Read moreTo be honest 100% worse the money and time! It was definitely one of the best experiences ever! Staying at the end of the Victoria Falls! It cannot be better.
