Victoria Falls needs no introduction – as one of the 7 natural wonders of the world, it is perhaps the most visited site in Southern Africa and hence leisure facilities and opportunities abound. The sight of millions of liters of water gushing into a huge chasm creating the famous “smoke that thunders” is a sight that has inspired and enthralled visitors for a century already.
The Zambezi Waterfront Village has well appointed furnished rooms set in spacious grounds. There are 2 swimming pools situated near the bar, BBQ and auditorium. Stunning Zambezi sunsets can be enjoyed from the entertainment complex or the restaurant area.
