The Royal Livingstone Anantara
The local tribespeople call the river Mosi-oa-Tunya: “The Smoke That Thunders.” On the banks of the great Zambezi River, upstream of where the mighty cataract thunders into the Batoka Gorge, is The Royal Livingstone Victoria Falls Zambia Hotel by Anantara. The hotel boasts a unique location overlooking Victoria Falls. The 173 luxurious rooms are elegantly furnished and infused with Zambian culture, featuring a balcony or veranda with outdoor seating, overlooking gardens frequented by free-roaming zebras, giraffes, and impalas. All guests have unlimited complimentary access to Victoria Falls.
