Livingstone

Livingstone is known as the capital of tourism in the SADC region because it is home to one of the 7 wonders of the world, the Mosi – Oa- Tunya (Victoria Falls).
Named after the famous Victorian missionary explorer, Dr David Livingstone, who explored this area extensively, Livingstone Town was established in 1905.

As a major European settlement, being close to the Zambezi River crossing over to Southern Rhodesia, the town was made the capital of Northern Rhodesia in 1911. As the capital, it enjoyed excellent facilities far superior to anything elsewhere in the country, as can be seen from the surviving Edwardian buildings that line the city’s main road.

The town hosts a wide range of tourist activities for everyone.
