Unless you are coming from the SADC region you will need a visa to enter both Zimbabwe and Zambia. You can get a multiple or single entry visa and they are issued either at the consulate/embassy of the country or when you enter the country. If you are flying through Livingstone or Victoria Falls you can definitely get a visa on the way through immigration. Below are the web links to the visa section and prices.
Zimbabwe
With a few exceptions, visas are required by nationals of all countries. They can be obtained at your point of entry. Single-entry/double-entry visas cost US$30/45 (and can be issued upon arrival) and multiple-entry visas (valid for six months) cost US$55, but are only issued at Zimbabwean diplomatic missions. British citizens pay US$55/70 for single/double entry. A good website for checking changes in requirements and other immigration news is Safe Migration Zimbabwe. www.safemigrationzimbabwe.com
