New Years "Green Season Special" with breakfast -10%
This period from November to early April is usually characterized by summer rains and dramatic thunderstorms which bring the African bush to life in a rich and vibrant way.
There are a host of reasons why you should visit Victoria Falls during the Green Season; here are our top 4:
- View the drama of the Falls: Summer rains cause the Zambezi River to fill up to dramatic levels between January and March, which then spills over the Falls to create a magnificent plume of spray that can rise over 400 meters, and which may be visible from up to 48km away. This majestic water spectacle is what makes Victoria Falls world famous – it’s truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience not to be missed. View the Falls from a helicopter for full visual impact. Be prepared to get soaked when you walk the length of the Falls on foot!
- Experience the wild side: A game drive in the Zambezi National Park is popular any time of the year, and even though the rainy season causes thick vegetation and wildlife is spread across the landscape, you will still enjoy searching for animals and appreciating the natural beauty around you.
- Best natural photo backdrop: The dry bush is transformed overnight into a vibrant, green retreat with the onset of the rains, offering breathtaking scenery and incredible photo opportunities. Baobab trees start to fruit, and rainforest flowers are in bloom. A walking or river safari is popular for keen bird watchers, with hundreds of species adding color and song to the bush.
- Fewer Crowds: Take advantage of low season perks including fewer tourists and more personal space to soak up the beauty of Victoria Falls. The festive season rush is over, and the operating pace of activity providers subsides, allowing visitors a greater choice of activity booking timeslot options. Explore the small city of Victoria Falls at your leisure, indulge in uninterrupted curio shopping, and enjoy a drink or a meal at one of the many local restaurants in a relaxed atmosphere.
