Known locally as Mosi-Oa-Tunya or "the smoke that thunders" because of the spray made by the mass of water dropping 100 meters below in the gorges. Livingstone renamed the falls Victoria Falls in honour of Queen Victoria. 50 Years later, missionaries and traders settled in the small Zambian town of Livingstone and the railway bridge over the Zambezi was built.<br> The UNESCO proclaimed the Falls as a World Heritage Site, due to its unique nature.</em></font></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" colspan="2" width="762" height="7"><font color="#38432C"><img src="images/bridgesm.jpg" alt="Victoria Falls, Zambia" align="right" hspace="0" width="128" height="130"></font><p align="center"><font color="#38432C">Nowadays, the Victoria Falls mark the border between Zambia and Zimbabwe.<br> It has good road and air connections and is<br> an <strong>excellent starting point for a Safari</strong> in Southern Africa.</font></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" width="180"><img src="images/rhino_sm.jpg" alt="Rhinos in Mosi-Oa-Tunya National Park" width="150" height="96"></td> <td valign="top" width="75%"><strong>Parks around the Falls:</strong><br> Around the Victoria Falls are some fine National Parks such as Mosi-Oa-Tunya National Park (Zambia), Zambezi National Park (Zimbabwe) and Chobe National Park (Botswana) which can all be visited without checking out of Stanley Safari Lodge.<br> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top"><img src="images/car_safa.jpg" alt="Herd of Buffalos crossing road" width="150" height="98"></td> <td valign="top"><strong>Game viewing:</strong><br> Besides game drives with comfortable Land-Rover vehicles and experienced Bush Guides in the National Parks close to the Victoria Falls, we also organise <strong>canoe safaris</strong> on the Zambezi river and <strong>boat trips</strong> which are an excellent opportunity to see game (elephants, hippos, buffalos, rhinos...).<br> <br> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top"><img src="images/mother.jpg" alt="Mother with baby" width="150" height="150"></td> <td valign="top"><strong>Activities:</strong><br> We are also eager to show you our neighbouring traditional village which is over 800 years old or to visit the Livingstone museum.
