Livingstone Island: Experience the Unique Devil's Pool Created through Erosion

The Devil’s Pool is essentially a profound natural basin formed over millennia through erosion. What sets it apart, though, is the rock ledge at the waterfall’s brink where the depth of water is just a few centimeters. This organic obstruction enables you to leap into the depth of the pool without being carried off over the precipice.

Must see! Totally enjoyable! - Superb experience. It is a must visit. Even if you are not keen to take a dip in ANgels pool, still the visit is worth to see the views. Before you reach the island, make sure you change your shoes to the crocs they give and carry the towel. The boat ride to the island is so excited with twists and turns. Once you reach the island you can change into your swim wear and take a dip. In May, the water was freezing in the Angels pool. For Devils pool one has to go in Oct to Dec not in May. The only disappointing part was the breakfast. I am sure they can have better options to serve, specially for the vegetarian guests. The best part was the Hot chocolate

Andy is amazing. He was essentially our personal tour guide on our trip! - This was a great experience that Andy set up for us. He was very professional, helpful, courteous and an overall good guy. We used him for a number of different tours as well, including the helicopter ride over the falls. He was responsible for all of our taxi rides and transfers in Livingstone, Zambia. It felt like he was our personal local guide for our trip!

Fantastic experience. Would recommend to everyone. - DO IT. Absolutely great experience and service and worth every cent and more. Devil’s Pool is an absolute must do - incredible adventure and breathtaking views, though it was provided by another operator. Andy’s service was also excellent. Spoke with him over a few months prior to our trip to figure out what could be done in the timeframe (with border crossings and all) and he was very responsive throughout via WhatsApp. The pick up, border crossings and drop off were seamless as well. Would recommend his services to everyone.

Excellent service, very helpful and responsive - I was traveling on an organized tour in Namibia and Botswana. I have been asking my tour operator for days to reserve this trip for me. On the day of the trip, at 7 am, I was told it wasn't possible. I reserved it myself via Viator and got in contact with the tour operator Shepherd Taxi and Tours. They were very responsive and helped me organize everything, because I was traveling from Botswana to Zimbabwe on the same day! We had to arrange a pickup from the Zambian border. The trip itself was excellent, very well organized and safe. Just amazing!

Not a good experience - Shepard taxi from hotel to handoff to next driver was filthy dirty, smelled and didn’t want to touch anything. Driver even tried to get us to change out US money for him. Second driver to the actual falls excursion was helpful, clean vehicle. The guides at the falls wouldn’t take no for answer if you didn’t want to hang by your ankles on the falls. Came off pushy to try and pressure you into participating!

No refund for devils pool - The guide canceled on me because he was overbooked, but still have not recieved a refund. Beware of overbooking. I found this to be super unprofessional. If booked there should be no cancelations from the guild.
