Description

After the Museum tour clients will do a quick city tour of Livingstone with a Commentary while driving slowly explaining the Historical tour of Livingstone. Stopping at major Historical Buildings and delegates are free to take pictures. The town of Livingstone was moved from Old Drift in 1905 when it was decided that a location on Constitution Hill would be healthier than one on the River. The town was carefully planned with wide streets, avenues of beautiful trees, buildings with high ceilings and mosquito-netted verandahs. Clients are taken to view the famous Curio market which is a bustling colourful market where the local Zambians come to shop. The market sells everything from bright chitenge (local fabric), bags, curios made from different types of trees, copper bracelets, Wall clocks, African Maps using the Big 5 animals etc. This Market is situated in a small park in the centre of town. After the tour clients are transferred back to hotel.

Interesting city to visit

I enjoyed so much the drive as the guide me drove me into different parts of livingstone seeing how rich and locals live in this city. Unbelievable diversity between the standards of living in this city.The guide was excellent and a well knowledgeable of his city.At the museum the guidness was poor as the museum guide only directed me from one part to another without any explanation.

Livingstone City tour

Excellent experience. Learnt a lot about the history of Zambia through the museum tour. Subsequent tour of the city to various parts of the town including the markets was an eye opening and cultural experience. We learnt a lot from our guide, Mwangelua who was very knowledgeable and hospitable.
