The park is open daily, with entry fees of about $20 for non-resident adults and $10 for children. Activities within the park include guided walking tours to the falls, wildlife game drives, and cultural visits to local villages.

Things to Know Before You Go

Wear sturdy walking shoes and lightweight clothing, as you'll likely explore trails near the falls and the wildlife park. Carry sunscreen, a hat, and plenty of water, especially during the hotter months. For a closer look at the wildlife or the falls, guided tours are recommended for safety and added insights. Photography is allowed, but waterproof gear for cameras is advised near the falls due to the mist.

How to Get There

Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park is located just 12 kilometers from Livingstone town in Zambia. It’s easily accessible by taxi, private car, or organized tours. The park is also near Harry Mwanga Nkumbula International Airport, making it convenient for visitors arriving by air.

When to Get There

The park is a year-round destination, but the experience varies by season. From February to May, during the rainy season, Victoria Falls is at its most powerful, with an incredible spray visible from afar. From June to October, during the dry season, wildlife spotting becomes easier, and activities like Devil’s Pool become accessible due to lower water levels.

Many tour operators offer packages that also include nearby attractions such as Devil’s Pool, Zambezi River cruises, or even bungee jumping from Victoria Falls Bridge for thrill-seekers.
