Board a boat to cross the calm upper channels of the Zambezi River before hiking down into the gorge. Here, you’ll carefully enter the natural rock pools beneath the Falls. Swim under the spray, float in the refreshing waters, and capture unforgettable photos with rainbows and the thundering waterfall as your backdrop.

Your guides will ensure you have time to enjoy the pools safely before returning by boat and vehicle to your hotel.
