Zambia is best visited during the winter months (our summer months) as the rest of the time they experience rain and parts of the country are completely flooded and not easily accessible. Ideal time to visit is between May and November. It is quite hot in October and November and cool during June to September. At Victoria Falls, the water levels are high January-July on the Zambian side and diminish after that. For best viewing of the Falls, we recommend that travelers staying on the Zambian side should visit the Zimbabwe side between August and the end of the year – this tour can very easily be arranged at an additional cost. months to visit Zimbabwe. Victoria Falls has a hot climate and is best viewed from the Zimbabwe side yearround.
