Nov. 23, 2010 - PRLog -- Zimbabwe is gifted by many Natural parks & Reserviors. Zimbabwe's parks and reserves had all the right credentials, the best guides in Africa, a wide diversity of game, vast tracks of untamed wilderness, and phenomenal activities: from classic walking and river safaris to tiger fishing. Victoria Falls is one of the most prestigious nature's Gifts & attracts thousands of travelers & visitors to see its amazing beauty.
There are two islands on the crest of the falls that are large enough to divide the curtain of water even at full flood: Boaruka Island (or Cataract Island) nears the western bank and Livingstone Island near the middle — the place that David Livingstone first saw the falls from in Zambia. At less than full flood, additional islets divide the curtain of water into separate parallel streams.

Remarkably preserved in its natural state, Victoria Falls inspires visitors as much today as it did David Livingstone in the 1860's. The falls and the surrounding area have been declared National Parks and a World Heritage Site, thus preserving the area from excessive commercialization.
Open to visitors throughout the year, the Victoria Falls National Park in north-western Zimbabwe protects the south and east bank of the Zambezi River. It covers 23.4 km² extending from the larger Zambezi National Park about 6 km above the falls to about 12 km below the falls.
A number of activities can be experienced such as:
Bunji Jump. (111-meter jump from the bridge).
Rap Jump & experience the Foofie Slide.
The 'Flight of Angels' provides a fabulous vista of the falls, the upstream river and its many islands and for the more adventurous there is micro lighting with stunning views of the fall. Rafting the wild rapids below the fall is a very popular adventure.
Visitors can also kayak, canoe, fish, go on guided walking safaris, and ride on horseback and lunch on Livingstone's Island.
Game viewing via boat or open vehicles is a popular activity above the falls.
Visiting Crocodile Farm & Nature Sanctuary which opens from 8.00AM to 5.00PM
View the Majestic Falls from the Air with either short or extended flights.
