Just over the border in Zimbabwe and Zambia, Victoria Falls is the natural climax to a Botswana trip. The Zambezi pours over a precipice more than a mile wide, throwing spray hundreds of metres into the sky. It is an easy hop from Chobe, and a day or two here, whether for heart-racing adventure or a gentle sundowner cruise, adds a real sense of occasion to the end of a journey.

The falls are at their most thunderous from April to July, just after the rains, with huge volumes of water and spray. From August to December the water is lower, giving clearer views and the chance to swim at Devil's Pool on the Zambian side.
