This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Livingstone, Livingstone, Southern Province

Livingstone was an important town in Southern Africa during the early days of European settlement and the beginnings of Colonial rule. It served as the capital of the British Protectorate of Northern Rhodesia from 1911 - 1935. As the capital, it enjoyed excellent facilities far superior to anything in the surrounding country, as can be seen from the surviving Edwardian colonial buildings that line the city’s main road.
In 1935, Lusaka was named the capital, and the once bustling city of Livingstone became a quiet town. However, because of its proximity to the Zambezi River and the Victoria Falls, it has continued which, is now known as Africa’s Adventure Capital.
