From Zambia to Zimbabwe: How easy to cross the borders?

We are planning to visit the Victoria Falls. We will be driving from Lusaka to Livingstone (is that something one will recommend by the way?). It seems that most of the hotels and many major landmarks are on the Zimbabwean side of the border. How easy is it to cross from one side to the other?

Are there any prearrangements one needs to take into account (like additional visas to Zimbabwe)?

Best Answer

As @MastaBaba said above, the roads are in decent condition, but not perfect either. Nothing to worry about really.

I would suggest a Kaza Visa, which gives you access to Zimbabwe and Zambia, as well as a few other neighboring countries. This is the most efficient and effective way to gain access to both Zimbabwe and Zambia.
