Livingstone in the south of Zambia, home to the mighty Victoria Falls is also known as the ‘Adventure Capital’ of Africa. Victoria falls is Zambia’s most famous and popular destination. When you are stood in front of the ‘Thundering’ waters getting soaked by the spray, its obvious to see why.
The shear enormity and power of the mighty “Mosi-o-Tunya” ( Smoke that thunders ) have made it one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the world. As a tourist destination, the Livingstone area is very well developed. There are Luxury five star hotels by the falls and set on the banks of the Zambezi luxury River Lodges, camp sites. The town of Livingstone is steeped in History with a very worthwhile Museum to visit.
