The buzzing town of Livingstone, on the Zambian side of the bridge at Victoria Falls, has fired the imagination as an international adventure and wilderness incentive destination! The spark came in 2002 with the opening of the colonial-style 173-room five star Royal Livingstone Hotel and the adjacent 215-room three star Zambezi Sun Hotel, followed in 2008 by the spectacular four-star David Livingstone Safari Lodge & Spa (77 rooms). All three have prime locations on the banks of the legendary Zambezi River and the sumptuous Royal is within sight and sound of nature’s masterpiece, the Victoria Falls.
The activities make this one of the world’s favourite adventure incentive destinations and are contained within easy reach. They range from the pure adrenalin of the world’s most rousing white-water rafting, the 111m bridge bunji jump with the Falls as a backdrop, high wire slides across the massive gorge, canoeing with a noted solo explorer, a night under canvas in a park, abseiling to unique activities such as walking with lions, elephant back safaris, helicopter and microlight flips, river cruises, jet boats, touring the falls, wildlife safaris, a luxury vintage steam train for dinner (92 pax) to easily rival the style and quality of the Orient Express, water taxis, colourful cultural entertainment, fishing for “tiger”, horse trails, exquisite crafts, an 18-hole golf course, two spas and more.
