True, been on both sides (Zimbabwe and Zambia), both are deserving to be visited - hope to see the magnificent ruins of Great Zimbabwe next year

Loved to see Vic Falls once again...I lived there for (8) of the best months of my life with my husband who is from Vic Falls. There are honestly no kinder people in the world, but please know, though this gal has her husband behind her filming, like anywhere in the wilderness, I definitely would not go alone & always be very aware of what's around you there. There are elephants that blend unbelievably behind trees that are very dangerous, leopards, etc & once you're in the bush, you become part of the food chain. It's that simple & all the animals there are on defense from the lions. And what I learned is, never ever stand at the waters edge of the Zambezi. The crocs can leap very far to grab their prey & walk on land, not to mention the hippos. It made life very exciting, but the animals can be very dangerous....Disney was the worst portrayal of the natural world there is. And when I left Zimb, I left my heart & soul...No better place on the earth & I've travelled all over.

[@HildaVScott]

Great video, however it's important to mention that August is not peak water level season. Between April and Beginning of July, the water levels are highest and even the spots that shows less water in your video has a lot more water flowing over the edge. From August to November is the dry season and the water level drop drastically. But often during the wet season it is very difficult too see the falls due to the mist and spray. But as someone who grew up in Southern Africa, it's just important that people understand the falls water levels are different at different times of the year. And its also worthwhile doing a day trip to Zambia and seeing the falls on the Zambian side.

Euer Video ist einfach grandios. Stark erzählt. Besuche selbst in ein paar Wochen die Fälle. Nachdem ich in Eurem Video gesehen habe, welche imposanten Ausblicke man von den Aussichtspunkten hat, werde ich mir wahrscheinlich den Hubschrauberflug sparen. Ich hoffe, dass mir ähnlich starke Aufnahmen gelingen werden.

Wir hatten den Hubschrauberflug bei einem früheren Besuch bereits gemacht, du kannst ein paar Bilder von oben in einem unserer älteren Video sehen kzbin.info/www/bejne/omm2ZpKOermCobM Es ist halt nochmals eine ganz andere Perspektive und man sieht die Entstehungsgeschichte der Fälle.

One British man told me Victoria Falls is the best falls. However it can go dry so check before you go.A old and awesome place.

[@SandraMarkusTrachsel]

Correct, highest water level is in April, lowest water level is in October with slight variations from year to year. Best regards, Markus

[@shawnastephens7021]

Awesome video! Breath-taking captures!! I actually booked a trip to South Africa (Cape Town, Johan and Kruger National Park) for Sept. 2025 with the option for an extension to Victoria Falls (Zimbabwe) for an extra 2 days. I haven't yet decided if I want to include Victoria Falls into my trip yet (to be honest, I'm not sure if it's a strong enough interest but I kinda want it to be as I know it's one of the 7 Wonders of the World...Lol). Not only that, but I know September is also the dry season for Victoria Falls so wondering if going this time of the year would still be worth seeing the waterfalls. But this is an AWESOME video! Thanks for sharing!!

[@SandraMarkusTrachsel]

Thank you very much for your wonderful comment, appreciate it very much! So glad to hear that you enjoy watching our videos and happy for you that you have planned a trip to Africa. Regarding waterlevel, yes, it will be very low and will look very different. The question is if you plan to return at another time of the year or rather not. Sure you have looked at pictures of the falls from that time of the year and whether you decide if it will be worth to go there. Wishing you all the best and best regards, Markus

[@ellenwheeler2031]

Wish I could hear the falls, not the music. But still a great video.

[@SandraMarkusTrachsel]

Dear Ellen, thank you very much for your comment. Be assured that it would be very boring because it would be the same sound for the entire video. On the trail you have more or less the same distance to the falls so it is the same thundering sound everywhere. Wishing you all the best and best regards, Markus

[@SandraMarkusTrachsel]

Hi ~ Great Video. Question : There is "Armchair Falls" ~ Do they still allow access to "The Armchair Rock" ? I was there in July 1994 ( 30 years ago ) & was only 1 of 2 in our traveling group of 13 that walked out and sat in it & had it photographed for posterity. One of my favorite Vic Falls pics.

[@SandraMarkusTrachsel]

Thank you very much for your kind comment, appreciate it very much! I don't know what the armchair rock is. If you mean the rocks right at the edge of danger point at the end of the Zimbabwe side, they want you to say away from them as you can see here in the video kzbin.info/www/bejne/faWkZ56voJmgndksi=CTwCC9U1ort2QJb7&t=803 Looking back at our 2016 video, we can see that at that time, nothing was fenced off on the Zimbabwe side kzbin.info/www/bejne/omm2ZpKOermCobMsi=teefZ7ZNQTQ9fAFl&t=72 Wishing you all the best and best regards, Markus

[@evelynmoyosithole1863]

This is amazing. How long was the hike?

[@SandraMarkusTrachsel]

Thank you very much! The hike is approximately 3 km long (1.5 km from one end to the other) and you can spend easily a full day watching the falls and taking pictures. We entered the park around 10:00 in the morning and left it just before it closed at 18:00 in the evening. Wishing you all the best and best regards, Markus

[@payneemelda3131]

Pls is the Victoria Falls located in Zambia or Zimbabwe? I'm confused

[@SandraMarkusTrachsel]

Both, its on the border between those countries. Zambia has more of the falls but Zimbabwe has more of the view. So on viewpoint 12 you stand in Zimbabwe looking at Livingstone island in Zambia.

Hallo, sehr schöner und informativer Film. Wir haben vor eventuell nächstes Jahr die Fälle zu besuchen. Wir sind uns aber nicht sicher ob das Zeitfenster von einem halben Tag ausreichend ist um alles zu sehen. Wie lange war euer Besuch an den Fällen. Über eine Antwort würde ich mich sehr freuen. LG

[@SandraMarkusTrachsel]

Hallo Bruno, vielen Dank für Deinen tollen Kommentar, das freut uns sehr, dass Euch das Video gefallen hat. Die Viktoriafälle waren der Abschluss unserer Zimbabwe Safari, wenn euch dort noch ein Park interessiert schaut doch mal rein. Ein halber Tag ist für die Simbabwe-Seite schon sehr knapp (für die Sambia-Seite würde ich sagen, dass das geht. Wir haben auch drei Videos von Sambia-Safariparks). Das reicht knapp um auf der Simbabwe-Seite einmal entlang der Fälle und wieder zurück zu laufen und alle Aussichtspunkte zu besuchen (ich schätze es sind ca. 2.5 - 3 Km hin und zurück). Aber wenn ihr das auch noch etwas geniessen und dokumentieren wollt, dann ist das schon sehr wenig Zeit. Wir waren zwei volle Tage dort, sind also zweimal am Morgen in den Park und bei Sonnenuntergang wieder raus. Einfach auch, weil man ja nie weiss, ob man an dem Tag dann Wetterglück hat oder nicht. Also es müssen ja nicht zwei volle Tage sein, aber ein halber Tag fürs erste Mal ist schon eher auf der sportlichen Seite. Ganz viele Grüsse, Markus

[@reisenmitbruno277]

@@SandraMarkusTrachsel Danke für die Rückmeldung, dann werden wir die Reise eher nicht machen. Es ^Würde sich zu vieles auf der Reise wiederholen. (Berge und Meer Rundreise). LG

[@SandraMarkusTrachsel]

Hallo Bruno, also ich will Euch jetzt auf keinen Fall Euer Erlebnis der Victoriafälle verhindern, gell. Natürlich geht auch ein halber Tag und man kann auch einen Hubschrauberflug über die Fälle machen, dann ist auch ein halber Tag vorbei. Es sind 15 Aussichtspunkte (16, wenn du die Brücke noch dazu nimmst). 10 Min. pro Aussichtspunkt sind 2h40min und dann noch die ca. 3 Km entlang der Fälle laufen (also ca. 1.5 Km hin und zurück, wobei zurück man direkt laufen kann). Dann noch der Weg vom Hotel zu den Fällen und zurück, ja, das ist ein halber Tag aber dann auch wirklich sportlich, das wollte ich damit sagen. Und ich habe auf Eurem Kanal gesehen, dass ihr gerne wunderschöne Videos produziert, daher ist das halt mit Filmen und Dokumentieren ein sehr gedrängtes Programm. Sambia-Seite ist viel kleiner, aber Simbabwe ist fast die ganze Länge der Fälle. In jedem Fall wünsche ich Euch einen ganz tollen Urlaub und viele wunderbare Erlebnisse und ganz viele Grüsse, Markus

[@reisenmitbruno277]

@@SandraMarkusTrachsel Danke für diese hilfreiche Info. Da der Besuch im Rahmen einer geführten Reise ist und wir noch gar nicht wirklich wissen wie lange genau der Aufenthalt sein wird, es ist vorher ein Programmpunkt und hinterher auch noch einer. Es kann dann durchaus sein, dass wir noch nicht einmal einen halben Tag da verbringen. Wir haben, glaube ich, schon eine tolle Alternative gefunden, China mit einer Flusskreuzfahrt auf dem Yang. LG

For a normal visit as we did no. The hike along the falls is approximately 1.5 km long on the Zimbabwe side. So it takes a several hours to walk and enjoy the falls. We started in the morning around 10 o'clock at the gate and with extensive filming it took as all day long to reach danger point at the end. Wishing you all the best and best regards, Markus

[@Minele27]

Danke für das tolle informative Video. Um welche Uhrzeit habt ihr den Nationalpark besucht, sieht so aus als ob ihr die einzigen Besucher gewesen seid? Wie lange ungefähr braucht man zu allen Punkten? War die Reisezeit eher Anfang oder Ende August?

[@SandraMarkusTrachsel]

Vielen Dank für Deinen tollen Kommentar, das freut uns sehr, dass Dir das Video gefallen hat. Das war am 12. August 2021. Wegen den Covid-Einschränkungen war der Park kaum besucht (wir waren auch in einigen Safari-Lodges mitunter die einzigen Gäste). Jetzt wird es vermutlich wieder deutlich mehr Besucher haben. Wir waren von ca. 9:30 bis kurz vor Schluss (18:00) im Park und haben uns den ganzen Tag dafür Zeit genommen vom Devil's Catarakt zum Danger Point zu gelangen. Es kommt halt drauf an, wie viel Zeit man sich an den einzelnen Aussichtspunkten lässt. Es ist ja nicht so weit zu laufen, ich schätze ca. 3 km und 1.5 Std. reine Gehzeit vom Besucherzentrum und wieder zurück (davon 1.5 km entlang der Fälle). Die restliche Zeit ist zum geniessen. Ganz viele Grüsse, Markus

[@Minele27]

@@SandraMarkusTrachsel Danke für deine schnelle Antwort. Na da hatte Covid doch mal Vorteile und euch ein einzigartiges Erlebnis beschert. Wir wollten eventuell im September reisen, werden jetzt aber wohl eher für Mai planen, damit auch ordentlich Wasser vorhanden ist.

[@SandraMarkusTrachsel]

Gern geschehen. Denke bitte daran, dass "ordentlich Wasser" im Mai auch mit ordentlich viel Sprühregen verbunden ist. D.h. die Sicht an den Mainfalls und Rainbow-Falls wird sehr begrenzt sein. Schau dir doch mal Videos vom Mai auf KZbin an, ob das deinen Vorstellungen entspricht. Zum Filmen und Fotografieren ist sehr viel Sprühregen natürlich hinderlich. Viele Grüsse, Markus
