Livingstone is a travellers gem and nicknamed the ‘Adventure Capital of Africa’ for good reason. Home to a Natural Wonder of the World and with incredible water, wildlife, adrenaline, foodie and local cultural experiences on offer, there is so much more to explore than just Victoria Falls – making our town one of the coolest backpacking destinations on the planet! Bang in the heart of Livingstone Town, Jollyboys Backpackers is within walking distance of the Livingstone Museum, Mukuni Curio Market and a host of bars, restaurants and shops, so we are the best Livingstone hostel for location. When it comes to rooms, guests will have four options: camping, dorms or private rooms – either ensuite or with shared bathroom facilities. We offer incredible value for money for solo travellers, couples, friends and family groups.
Why guests will love it! Our unique vibe and social aspect is what makes Jolly’s TRULY special. Head down to our pool or relax in our insta-famous chill-out zone, make new friends, share travel stories and tips, or just have a great time with like-minded travellers from all over the world. If guests don’t want to leave the hostel, no problem, there’s an on-site bar, restaurant and a fully equipped kitchen. Guests will experience real Zambian hospitality at the hands of our friendly and knowledgeable team, full of insider knowledge and happy to share their tips on what to do and see during your visit to our region. Ready to experience the World’s Best One Day Rafting? Found the courage to bungee jump off Victoria Falls Bridge? Guests are encouraged to contact our Activity Booking Desk to make any activity or safari bookings before or during their stay. Our Responsible Tourism initiatives include worm farms for food waste, solar-powered hot water, reduced water use and upcycling. We also support a host of local social enterprise organizations within Livingstone and surrounds. Jolly’s has been voted the Best Hotel in Zambia for close to a decade. Adventure awaits!
