National parks near Victoria Falls

The town of Victoria Falls sits at the gate of its own national park, and Zambia's Mosi-oa-Tunya is a walk across the bridge, with a visa that covers both countries. Chobe, in Botswana, is ninety minutes away and sold as a day trip with a river cruise and a game drive. Hwange, Zimbabwe's largest park, is two hours south. The falls are fullest from March to May and lowest in October and November.
