Why Livingstone is worth half a day

The history behind the Falls

Most visitors see Livingstone only as the Zambian base for the Falls. It is more than that: the former capital of Northern Rhodesia, with a museum of real weight and a main road of period buildings. A half day here gives the Falls their context.

The Livingstone Museum

Zambia's oldest and largest museum

The Livingstone Museum is the oldest and largest museum in Zambia, covering regional archaeology, ethnography and the history of the Zambezi, and holding original David Livingstone material. On the town tour your guide works through the collection with you rather than leaving you to read the labels.

The colonial town

Why the town sits where it does

The tour walks the streets of the former capital, taking in the period architecture along the main road and the story of why Livingstone sits where it does, which is really a story about the railway.

Markets and crafts

What things should cost

Time in the local markets and craft stalls follows, with your guide on hand to tell you what things should cost and which stalls carry work made locally rather than imported.

Price and booking

From $60 per person

The Livingstone town tour starts from $60 per person and includes a professional guide. Entrance fees and purchases are extra. At the end you are taken back to your hotel or on to the border. It pairs naturally with the Zambian side Falls tour, which covers the viewpoints the town tour leaves out.

Other ways to see Livingstone

Museum only, or a village

If you want the museum without the walk, the Livingstone Museum visit includes return transfers and the entrance fee, from $50 per person; a guide inside the museum is not included. For a cultural visit outside town, the Mukuni Village tour visits one of the oldest settlements in the area, from $60 per person with return transfers.
