Hi - assume you mean Livingstone, Zambia, and not Livingstonia, Malawi (now there's a place that will rest in my heart for ever). For village and market - just go out and wander. For School- are we talking an organised trip here? In which case I pass.

If you mean Livingstone Zambia, there are probably many tours/visits available. We took a visit which was available from The Royal Livingstone and Zambezi Sun which takes you to a nearby village.
A host from the village walks you around and you see whatever's going on that day. Most interesting to me was just seeing the people working on thier houses and the kids playing, it's quite interesting.
At the end of course is a stop at the market. It's much smaller than the one near the Falls, though the prices were comparable.

Yes, I did mean Livingstone, Zambia - didn't realize there was a Livingstone, Malawi. Favor, sounds like you did what I was asking about. I wanted to make sure it was a low-key, non-intrusive sort of thing, and it sounds like it is. Fuzzylogic, I'm going to look up Livingstonia right now and learn about a new place - which is half the fun of thinking/talking about travel!

santharamhari - Thanks for the guidance. I was thinging about the whitewater rafting, but wasn't sure about how cold it will be (I'm such a wimp about being cold!) and the climb out at the end. ANy idea about temperature in late June/early July - both air and water? I'm wondering about a 1/2 day canoe trip on the Zambezi - may need a separate post on it. It sounds like a quiet, peaceful way to (hopefully) see some animals, but my husband keeps muttering "crocodiles, bilruzia" (I know I'm not spelling that correctly). Has anyone done this?
