Yes, visiting Victoria Falls requires paying an entry fee to the national parks on either the Zimbabwean or Zambian side. As of 2026, the Zimbabwean side (Victoria Falls National Park) charges international tourists US$58 per person for a single entry. This side offers the most "classic" viewpoints of the main falls. On the Zambian side (Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park), the fee is lower, typically around US$20–$30. If you wish to see the falls under the light of a full moon, special "Moonlight Viewing" tours cost approximately US$116 in Zimbabwe. In 2026, these fees are used directly for the conservation of the UNESCO World Heritage site and anti-poaching efforts in the surrounding rainforest. Most travelers opt for a "Kaza UniVisa" which allows multiple crossings between both countries, but remember that the park entry fees are separate from your visa costs and must be paid (usually in USD cash or credit card) at the gate of each respective park.
