lovely Valley and touristik place but less animals
Overall rating
5/5

I visited Hwange NP. and Victoria Falls in Nov24 which is actually the beginn of the wet season besides the really beautyfull and lovely valleys and Nature landscapes, espacilly the VIC. Falls Rain Forest Park, there were roughly not much animals to see at this time😔😔😔. During our daily Game Drives in the morning and evening hours our ranger had a hard time to find at least some animals hidden in the savanne as they all were moving to other locations where is more water and fresh green areas. So if it comes to the decission question which park is better to visit Hwange or Chobe? I would defently say that Chobe has the richer Animal areas and more nicer green areas because of the Chobe and Zambezi river Delta landscapes and lovely areas around. It's a very popular area for the Animals which are Schilling Next to the river area. VIC Falls is a ideal place as base, to stay a couple of days as it is touristic and has a good infrastructure you can do lot of activites for effordable price levels there👌🏻

I think Hwange National Park excels in wildlife, scenic beauty, bush vibe, and birding because it offers an incredible diversity of wildlife, including the Big Five, amidst breathtakingly beautiful landscapes of dense forests, open savannas, and rocky outcrops. The park's remote location and limited infrastructure create an immersive, wilderness experience with a distinct "bush vibe". Additionally, with over 400 species recorded, Hwange is a birdwatcher's paradise, making it an ideal destination for those seeking an authentic African safari experience.

We stayed at lower Zambezi first and then moved to south Luangwa. The density of animals was surreal and guides and people where very charming and knowledgeable. Given it was end of dry season, it was quite hot in the afternoons.

One of my favorite trips ever!
Overall rating
5/5

My trip was for the 5-day package and liked the entire trip proposal.
Muza was our guide and he was always very kind and polite. He is an expert in what he was offering and guiding us.
We accepted the suggestion to visit the falls before breakfast and it was a valuable tip, as the park was emptier and the temperature was milder.
On the game drive day at Hwange National Park, we were guided by the Talks - also an expert at what he does. I had the chance to see many animals (lions, giraffes, zebras, wild boars, monkeys, antelopes) and learn several interesting facts about wildlife behavior.
I strongly recommend it!

Zim was such a great experience. The people and culture are just wonderful and the landscape is so varied from lush greenery to Victoria Falls to a beautiful safari and sunset cruise on the Zambezi. We really look forward to going back soon!

I am a little bit biased, as I was born there, but it's an amazing place. Friendly people, knowledgeable guides and amazing views of the wildlife. Always hard to leave home and the serene beauty of Zimbabwe.

Go wild in Zimbabwe
Overall rating
4/5

What a big place to visit with bumpy roads and wild animals everywhere, great to see and experience especially with hot weather to relax in. The only problem for us was the visa system being asked before we got to the customs desk, we wanted a multi access visa we got a single. So crossing the border twice meant we ended up have to pay twice.

Zimbabwe is a beautiful country with astonishing diversity, breathtaking scenery
Overall rating
5/5

Our experience with Off2Africa for our safari to Robins Camp was nothing short of incredible. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that every detail had been carefully planned and arranged. The wildlife we encountered was astonishing – we were lucky to see so many animals in their natural habitat, making the safari a truly unforgettable experience.

The food was also fantastic, and every meal felt like a special treat. Robin’s Camp itself is spectacular, situated right in the heart of the safari. Waking up to the sounds of wildlife and being surrounded by nature at all times was surreal.

A special thank you goes to Lue, our guide, who truly made the safari worthwhile. He was with us every step of the way, sharing his immense knowledge about the animals and the wildlife. Lue’s energy was infectious, and he made every moment – from sunrise to sunset – exciting and fun. His passion for what he does really shines through, and his expertise added so much depth to our experience.

We also want to thank Emma French, our organizer, who did a brilliant job making sure everything ran smoothly. The whole trip was seamless, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

If you’re looking for an unforgettable safari, we highly recommend Off2Africa, Robin’s Camp, and, of course, the amazing Lue!

We spent 3 nights and 4 days at Camp Hwange and it truly couldn't have gone better. An incredible NP, private concession and the team at Camp Hwange was excellent. Everyone from the GMs to the entire staff were just great. Extremely inviting, hospitable, outgoing and just good all around people. Our guide, Kan (sp?) was nothing short of excellent as well. Very knowledgeable and truly seemed to love what he was doing. The park itself was great. Plenty of wildlife to be seen and different terrain throughout the areas that we explored. 10/10 for the entire experience.

Victoria Falls was spectacular!
Overall rating
5/5

We spent 2 days Victoria Falls after a 12-day safari in Kenya and Tanzania. It was a nice change from the more rural park settings. Zimbabwe was clean and the scenery was spectacular. We had dinner on a Zambezi River Cruise while we were there. The food was well prepared, and the service was great. Our guide for the tour of Victoria Falls was so friendly and knowlegeable; we really enjoyed our visit. The 12-minute helicopter ride was just the right amount of time to take in all the views of both the Zambia and Zimbabwe sides of the falls. We had lunch at the overlook cafe. The food was local and delicious, and our server was so sweet and helpful. The views at the cafe really helped round out our visit. We enjoyed watching the elephants meandering around as we drove down the main road.
