44 days in Livingstone & Cape Town Itinerary

Tourism in Livingstone, a town nestled on the Zimbabwean border, thrives largely thanks to the nearby Victoria Falls.

When in Livingstone, make a side trip to see Batoka Gorge in Kazungula, approximately Kazungula away. There's much more to do: admire the sheer force of Victoria Falls, head outdoors with Outdoor Activities, examine the collection at Railway Museum, and admire all the interesting features of Gorge Swing.
