The trip exceeded our expectations. Safety is taken very seriously and the guides all know what they're doing and monitor the flow of water at all times. A man in our group was worried about the cros…Full review by mpugh4

An incredible day out, completely worth the money, totally recommend it. On the day we went, the boat tours were all booked - but on the Green Safaris website we found the walking tour to get there. …Full review by Mkstrr

If you're staying on Zim side then tours tend to start early to allow for getting across the border and formalities done. We left our hotel around 8am and after playing in the pools were served breakfast on LI. We still then had more than half a day to enjoy other attractions in Zambia. If staying on Zambia side then there's not really a best time of day. Hope this helps!

I went on the Livingston Island tour last July. I believe it was the end of July. Angels Pool was open and groups were going into it. Devils pool is closed waters too high . The tour was good and we got very close to the edge of the falls. Take extra clothes you will get wet and it is chilly afterwards while you are eating lunch.

When you reach the island by boat, you have a slight incline and a mild walk on an uneven surface as you cross Livingston Island. It still requires body balance and good muscle tone to get to Devil’s pool. You have to climb down the bank into the water, swim for 10 yards to the island and get out if the water and maneuver yourself to the edge if the falls. Some of the people that were in our group did not go to the pool. The view looking down the falls was breath taking. Double rainbows. Like nothing you would ever see anywhere else. My wife had a painful hip and decided not to go out to the pool. The lunch on the island was fabulous. I would do it again.

Hi! My husband and I went to Angel's Pool in early July of 2016. I wouldn't know the exact temperature... but I had no issues :) though I was excited and wasn't going to let it stop me haha, I recall my husband grimacing and taking his time getting in so it was at least somewhat cold, but he's a bit sensitive to cold water in my opinion. The tour guides loan you these great, huge, warm panchos though so I encourage you to not let cold water stop you if possible, that was the coolest part of the trip for us!! But also, be warned that it may not be accessible at that time. It depends on the water levels, they don't allow folks to go to Angel's Pool if the water level is still too high for safety. We were told we might not be able to visit it in early July, but it ended up working out for us. You can email the tour operator as the date approaches for updates.
