Adventure sport lovers vacationing in Livingston must experience white water rafting down the frothy Batoka Gorge while river boarding activities are also available in the rapids of Zambezi. Thrill seekers on the other hand can actually bungee jump off the Victoria Falls Bridge which is a whopping 111m in height or go gorge swinging or abseiling in the gorge at the base of the breathtaking Victoria Falls. Those who wish to explore Livingston’s natural wonders at their own pace can canoe up the upper section of the Zambezi or try tandem kayaking in the same region. Horseback rides along the trails of Mosi-o-Tunya National Park are also open to riding enthusiasts while river safaris are also popular in the region. Angling fanatics can try their luck by fishing on the shores of the Zambezi River while elephant ride safaris across wildlife sanctuaries the likes of the Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park are also available. Cheetah Walks and Lion Walks are perhaps the most renowned activity for wildlife fanatics touring Livingston as The Mukuni Research Centre offers a variety of programs for tourists in addition to its conservation efforts to save the endangered big cat species.
A ride aboard a steam train that travels across the Victoria Falls Bridge is another must-have experience for first time visitors to the area while golfers can also tee off in the area’s 18-hole golf course which is also home to 118 flora species while a shopping spree at the Craft Market and a tour of the Livingstone Museum are also engaging activities for tourists of all ages.
