Livingstone

The name Victoria Falls was originally coined by explorer and missionary, David Livingstone. But the local people, both in Zimbabwe and Zambia, refer to Victoria Falls as “Mosi-oa-Tunya” which means “The Smoke that Thunders”. Due to the relentless mist above the falls created by the downward plummet of millions of gallons of water, a small rainforest has actually developed. Livingstone offers an ample array of activities, so why not take a microlight over this stunning region, canoe above the falls, or whitewater raft below them? Of course, you could also make time for the second highest bungee jump in the world from Victoria Falls Bridge. For an adventurous but adrenalin free alternative explore the Mukuni and Maramba cultural villages which provide a fascinating opportunity to observe traditional daily life.
