YOUR ITINERARY Depart on your scheduled flight to Livingstone. DAY 2 - On arrival in Livingstone you will be transferred to the Zambezi Sun Hotel for a four night stay. The town moved from Old Drift by the river to Constitution Hill in 1905 and was carefully planned with wide streets, avenues of beautiful trees, and buildings with high ceilings and mosquito netted verandas. You will find a comprehensive collection of the famous explorer's memorabilia at the Livingstone Museum and can stroll through the bustling Maramba market where the local Zambians shop. The colourful stalls are laden with everything from fruit and vegetables to second hand clothes and bright Chitenge, a local fabric. This afternoon join our included tour of Makuni , an authentic tribal village and home to the Leya people, providing a fascinating insight into their way of life. Guided by one of the villagers you will see how traditional huts are built and decorated, take a look inside, meet the residents and watch the locals at work. DAY 3 - This morning you will enjoy a guided walking tour of the magnificent Victoria Falls. `Discovered' by Dr Livingstone on 16 November 1855, they are twice the height of Niagara, 5,600ft wide and have the capacity to push 150 million gallons of water per minute over the mile-wide basalt cliff a truly awesome sight and one of the most spectacular natural wonders in the world. Your tour will take you along one of the most scenic sections of the Falls, stopping at various vantage points on the way. You will walk over the famous Knife Edge Bridge as it crosses the Zambezi River and view the neighbouring country of Zimbabwe just beyond the rising mist, created by the sheer force of the mighty river as it hits the rocks below. This afternoon you will transfer to the jetty, where the riverboat awaits to glide you gently down stream as the sun sets over the upper Zambezi River. Sip a cocktail or two as you relax in comfortable wicker deck chairs, ready to spot elephants and giraffes, enjoying their own evening drink by the water's edge. DAYS 4 & 5 - You are free to relax or enjoy one of our optional excursions. You can take a scenic flight over Victoria Falls or join a game drive into Mosi-Oa-Tunya National Park, one of Zambia's famous parks and a wildlife sanctuary.
