Livingstone is situated on the Zambian side of Victoria Falls. It offers an international airport and is the base for many of the adventure companies offering tours in the area.
Named after the explorer who christened the falls in honour of his queen, Livingstone has become one of Africa’s top adventure destinations. So if the idea of throwing yourself off bridges, risking life and limb in white water rapids, playing tag with clouds or encountering wild animals head on blows your hair back, then press your “Pause” button.
The colonial left-over town of Livingstone is a melting pot of cafés, shops, noisy nightclubs, open-air markets selling anything from Mac lipstick to mielies and crazed taxi drivers.
There are eons of adrenaline activities available with easy access to the adventures available around Vic Falls.
The international dialling code for Zambia is + 260
