Vic Falls still pulling tourists despite the drought (Zambia)

 (December 2024)

Despite the negative impact of climate change on the Victoria Falls in Livingstone, the world heritage site recorded an increase in visitations in the first  three quarters of this year compared to last year.

Tourism Minister RODNEY SIKUMBA told ZNBC News that 80,000 visitations were recorded by the third quarter of this compared to the 57,000 visitations recorded the same period last year.

Mr SIKUMBA said by end of the third quarter, the country recorded 1.7 million tourist visitations.

He said despite challenges occasioned by the drought, Zambia has continued to host important conferences and meetings which contribute positively to the country’s tourism.
