Views of the falls can be obtained from a number of locations, such as Livingstone Island, the Rainforest Walkway, and the Victoria Falls Bridge. There are also options for zip-lining, bungee jumping, and white-water rafting for the daring. One of the many hotels in Livingstone, Zambia, the likes of Royal Livingstone Hotel by Anantara, can arrange for a helicopter ride so you can get a bird's-eye view of the magnificent Victoria Falls.
At more than 22,000 square kilometres, Kafue National Park is the largest national park in Zambia.
