Livingstone is the gateway to the Victoria Falls from the Zambian side and has a very different vibe about it. This is a colourful, bustling town, unofficially known as the Tourist Capital of Zambia. This is a town that prides itself on a range of accommodation from welcoming backpacker hotels to stunning 5* lodges on the banks of the Zambezi. A town whose proximity to Victoria Falls ensures guests a thrilling experience of one of the world’s Seven Natural Wonders. A town that borders Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park to the Southwest. This wilderness area is the smallest national park in Zambia but is home to large herds of elephant and to endangered white rhino which you can track on foot. These rhino are always accompanied by their anti-poaching rangers who protect them night and day.
For a more leisurely way to enjoy Livingstone, take a sunset or sunrise cruises down the Zambezi with the rumble of the falls and that iconic spray always in the background.
