Livingstone is named after the famous explorer Dr. Livingstone (“I Presume”). It is the heart of the South of Zambia and connects roads leading to Lusaka, Botswana and Zimbabwe. The town, with its colonial history, boasts good infrastructure and heritage and all projects are within a five mile radius of the town.
Livingstone lies 10km from the might Victoria Falls, know locally as Mosi Oa Tunya (the smoke that thunders). These falls are the widest and highest in the World making them the second wonder of the World, beaten only by Mount Everest.
The falls are majestic in themselves but the Surrounding national parks and the mighty Zambezi River bring their own attractions in terms of extreme sport, safari and sightseeing. Elephant and gazelle have both been seen in the area recently.
The town is a popular en route destination for people heading North toward safari in Tanzania and Kenya and those heading south toward South Africa. In your spare time there will be ample opportunity for you to visit the local attractions or join reasonably priced tours to neighbouring countries.
