Things to do in Victoria Falls, Southern Province: The Best Cultural Tours

March 25, 2022 Milan Banda

In the 1800s, the Kokolo tribe called Victoria Falls "Mosi-oa-Tunya," the smoke that thunders. That's still an apt description for the awe-inspiring waterfall that plummets over basalt cliffs along the Zambian border. Taxis and minibuses regularly run between Livingstone and the falls, which can be seen from bridges along the spray-drenched top or from "The Boiling Pot" at the bottom. Nearby are a Mukuni tribal village and a game park with giraffe, antelope and white rhinos.

It was my first time to Livingstone and I had a fantastic time with African Joined Tours. I was greeted at the airport by Mr Zulu and his team and had a comfortable transfer to my hotel. The Game Drive and Walking Safari of Mosi-o-Tunya National Park was simply amazing. Our guide Gift was very professional and well versed in the facts about the flora and fauna of the park. It was a fun, exciting and enlightening experience and we felt safe every step of the way. I will definitely use African Joined Tours again for my next visit. Mr Zulu and his team are fitting ambassadors of such a beautiful country!!!

Best food AND service EVER at the Peacock restaurant!!! Ryder attended to our every need with courtesy. I appreciated his attention without being a nuisance and was on hand whenever we had questions about Prescott, the Inn, music, events, etc. I so enjoyed the old historical charm and details throughout the Inn, rooms, restaurant, bar, lounge, and even window settees for taking in the views, just sitting for a short read, or you if don’t want to be in the room. I’ve added pics for your viewing.

Mukuni’s Village is a Royal village which was founded around the 13th Century. It is home to about 7,000 Leya people. The chief has invited visitors into his village to get a glimpse of how his people have lived for generations and to learn a little about their traditional customs and beliefs. The Chief’s guides and the people of the village are more than happy to show visitors their huts and take you inside, explain how they are built and decorated, introduce you to various craftsmen and women at work and ask you to taste some traditional foods and beer. This is a working village, not a purpose built tourist attraction, and it is a privilege to be welcomed into their lifestyle.
