Livingstone Island - another great way to see the Victoria Falls

Livingstone Island is a short distance from The Royal Livingstone Hotel. When the Falls are full you have to get there by boat. You get the opportunity to see the Falls from very close indeed. During the dry season you can swim in Devils Pool and peer down a huge precipice. This time of year that isn’t possible, but you can still have a dip in the water as I did. The current is extremely strong , but the guides make sure you are safe. You round the trip off with drinks of your choice and refreshments. We went in the late afternoon so had high tea, which included various tartlets, scones, chocolate brownies and cream profiteroles. Mine were washed down with Pimms and lemonade. Overall a fantastic experience.
