With the world’s largest waterfall as its main feature, the town of Victoria Falls is a great visit at any time of the year. The most popular time to visit would be during the dry season, from November to February. During this time, it gets quite wet, allowing the waterfall to flow at its full potential. However, you may not get the best pictures as it often rains during this season. The best time to visit would therefore be in the dry season, between March and September when the waterfall is least active and you can get close enough for some fantastic shots. You will get the best views of the surrounding areas and also be able to enjoy all the various other activities that the town has to offer. For cheap flights to Victoria Falls, consider visiting between December and February.
