We were in Zimbabwae in 1999 and satyed at Elephant Hills. The hotel was beautiful and safe. Victoria Falls is filled with dirt poor people. I mean mothers washing babies in a drainage ditch. So any time we venture out we were swarmed by beggars...who could blame them. That was 1999. Zimbabwae was at peace and across the falls, Zambia was at war. Since then both countries have seen much warring. I would not go back right now. Look for the countries with relative peace, South Africa, Botswana and Namibia...last I heard. If you're intent on seeing the falls, prepare yourself for going from European dining rooms to starving people.
