There are a lot of activities offered at and around the falls such as: bungee jumping, safaris, rafting and even swimming at the crest of the falls. Ming Hay had been here before and done most of these activities. The only thing that slightly interested me was the swimming in Devil’s Pool at the crest, but the outside temperature was quite cool, the water cold and the tours expensive and fully booked, so we decided just to enjoy the sight of the falls. Since we entered Zambia in the wee hours of the morning through a land border on the train, I only purchased a single entry visa (although I did not enquire about the other types of visas, it didn’t seem like the immigration officers had the time, patience or resources to offer me another kind of visa). Having only a single entry visa, we were unable to cross the bridge to the Zimbabwe side to view the falls. Being dry season, I don’t feel as though I missed anything except more rock viewing. |
