Kalambo Falls, one of Africa's tallest waterfalls, straddles the border between Zambia and Tanzania. A visit typically involves a moderate hike to viewpoints, offering spectacular scenery. Due to the remote location and rugged terrain, accessibility can be challenging; it's advisable to inquire about current road conditions and necessary permits beforehand. While solo visits are possible for experienced travelers, guided tours are highly recommended for safety and to enhance the experience with local knowledge. The best time to visit is during the dry season (May to October) when the falls are more accessible. Costs can vary depending on transport, accommodation (typically in nearby towns), and tour options, but expect to budget for a multi-day trip. The falls can be viewed in a half day, but travel time to and from the site can be extensive.
