Learn more about hotels in Livingstone

Livingstone isn't just remarkable for its proximity to "Mosi-oa-Tunya", meaning 'The Smoke that Thunders'—the local name for Victoria Falls. The city is also steeped in history, named after the renowned explorer David Livingstone, the first Westerner to set eyes on the Victoria Falls. From the colonial architecture that lines its streets to the wealth of local culture on display, Livingstone is a place waiting to be discovered.

Though the David Livingstone Centre in Scotland pays homage to the man himself, it's Livingstone, Zambia that truly can be said to bear his imprint. Whether it's a leisurely walk through town or a portrait of the region's storied past at the Livingstone Museum, the city's appeal extends far beyond its staggering natural surroundings.

When to visit Livingstone

Few places rival the sheer spectacle of Livingstone through the changing seasons. The dry winter months from May to July offer pleasant temperatures, perfect for an array of outdoor activities, from game drives to bungee jumping off the Victoria Falls Bridge. For families seeking the ideal outing, the warmer months from August to early November are perfect.

The rainy season from November to April transforms the landscape into a lush paradise, offering unparalleled wildlife viewing. During the high water season from March to July, the Victoria Falls roars at full force. Come October, visitors can join a sunset cruise to spot elephants crossing the Zambezi River. Every season in Livingstone brings its own character and charm.
