Situated in the Victoria Falls National Park, a world heritage site, you will find “The Grand Old Lady of the Falls”.  This is the Edwardian-style five star hotel built in 1904, that my family and I stayed in whilst visiting the Victoria Falls recently.  Through car hire, we got to explore the Falls and enjoy this newly redecorated and refurbished hotel – which combines the charm of the old and the convenience of the new.  With the Victoria Falls being on our doorstep, “The Smoke that Thunders” can be heard and seen.  With world-class service, who can go wrong.

Described in the 1800’s as “The Smoke that Thunders”, but in modern times as “The Greatest known curtain of Falling Water”, the Victoria Falls are a spectacular sight of inspiring beauty and majesty on the Zambezi River, which borders Zambia and Zimbabwe.  Do yourself a favour and invest in car hire as we did, to see the columns of spray that can be seen miles away as the water plummets over the edge, transforming the Zambezi from a wide calm river to a vicious river.  A path along the edge of the forest allows the brave to view the unimaginable spectaculars of the Falls.
