Tips & Tricks from Real Parents

1

The Zimbabwe side has the best views (85% of the falls visible) while the Zambia side is closer to the water.

2

The rainforest trail is about 2 km and stroller-friendly in dry season. For toddlers, carriers are better.

3

Bring a waterproof bag and poncho. In peak season (June), you will get soaked even from the viewpoints.

4

Combine with a sunset helicopter flight over the falls for the ultimate family photo opportunity.

5

Go in the morning when the sun is at your back for the best rainbow photos.

A Real Parent's Story

The rainbow that followed us through the rainforest

Every viewpoint had a rainbow. My kids started counting them. We lost count at 8. They still argue about the final number.

Read full story

We visited in July when the falls are at full power. The spray is so thick it feels like rain. My three kids (5, 7, 10) ran from viewpoint to viewpoint, rainbows appearing and disappearing as the sun shifted. The main falls viewpoint had a double rainbow that lasted 20 minutes. We took what must be the best family photo ever.
