Livingstone

Livingstone is rated as one of the two best adventure destinations in the world (the other is Queenstown NZ). Over 40 activities are available from this quirky little town in the heart of Africa.

Just 10kms from Victoria Falls, Livingstone is a happening mix of African customs and costume, old colonial architecture, derelict railway sheds, cafes, bizarre characters, and markets selling curios for tourists, or markets selling second-hand clothing from all over the world for the locals. It was named after Dr David Livingstone who made the Falls known to the Western world.

The town is noisy, hot, intriguing, welcoming, pretty, crazy, fast (taxis), slow (everything else). 

 

There are quiet suburbs where you can stroll under Flamboyant and Jacaranda trees, or noisy nightclubs where the locals will welcome you to dance the night away.

A well known and quaint little Railway museum, as well as the Livingstone Museum with artifacts and memorobilia about Dr David Livingstones travels . Don’t miss the Reptile Park with an 80 year old kick-ass croc catcher.

There are two shopping malls, and many coffee shops and restaurants along the main road.  The surrounding countryside is stunning, and there’s a smorgasbord of adventures we can book for you.

 

The people will welcome you with genuine hospitality, and won’t try hard-sell you stuff you don’t want. They will happily chat for hours about local and world affairs.

Livingstone offers a real travel experience. Many find it hard to leave.

So, come visit, do a crazy activity, raft the worlds best white water, ride an elephant, swim on the edge of the falls, jump off a sheer cliff attached to a climbing rope, or just chill for hours by the pool and get a tan (lots of people do that too).
