The Falls change through the year
Zambia Tourism describes March and April as the usual peak flood period, with heavy spray. As flow falls later in the year, more of the rock face and gorge can be visible. This is a seasonal pattern, not a forecast for your dates.
Think about your priorities

Water levels, weather and activity conditions vary. Check the latest guidance for the activities you want, rather than assuming every outing runs in the same way year-round.
Keep a little flexibility
If your dates are open, select flexible dates in the planner. Include your preferred month and the amount of time you have.
