Zambia : Dollars vs Euro

Next month I travel to Zambia for some weeks.
While preparing, I notice all prices are quoted in dollars.
My hotel in Livingstone tells me payment the local activities can be
done on in dollars,
euro (or even credit card with an extra charge).

I live in europe, so I'm wondering if it makes sense to change euro to
dollars for this trip?

Does anyone have recent experience with payment in euros.
Eg is the exchange rate 'normal' or are there extra charges when
paying in euros?

It makes sense to change Euros in Dollars for Livingstone.
I have been last year in Livingstone, and the took the same amount in
Euros as it costs in US-Dollars. Take enough small ones because they
cant or want not change you.
