Zimbabwe Travel Guide

Victoria Falls and safarias make Zimbabwe a wonderful vacation destination !We

We enjoyed very nice tour guides at Victoria Falls! We were there during the dry season, but Falls were still not to be missed! The weather was quite warm in September making the walking tour a challenge for my husband, but we were very comfortable in our accommodations at Stanley and Livingstone. The lodge itself was rather posh, with beautiful wood furnishings. Food was delicious with several choices each night and staff was very nice!

In Hwange, accommodations were not too opulent nor too rustic. We stayed at the Ivory Lodge. It had a safari “feel” with all needed amenities in our private building overlooking a watering hole. We sat on our deck to watch wild animals come out of the bush to drink. We felt as though the staff’s only priority was to be sure our needs were met and that we had a great time. It was not “just a job” to them. They went above and beyond. The camp director, Jamie is indeed a special hostess I hated to say goodbye to.
Safari guides shared their vast knowledge of the bush and wildlife with us. They tracked the animals and communicated with each other to give us the best viewing possible. We especially liked Jeb.
Food was very good and my special dietary needs have never been catered to as well as at The Ivory Lodge.
Everything was perfect, except we would have liked to have seen more cats. The bush however is not a zoo!

Zimbabwe was amazing, wild and beautiful.

The wildlife is plentiful and so beautiful. I loved seeing them in their natural habitat and the water holes are incredible to watch from the elevated viewing platform.
The scenery is unbeatable, especially Victoria Falls.
The weather was hot, but tolerable. No rain unless you count the Falls.
Take a helicopter ride over the Falls, so worth it.

Go to Zimbabwe it's wonderful

Amazing. We went to Mana Pools, had 3 days canoeing down the Zambezi then on to Hwange National Park finishing at Victoria Falls for a couple of days. Wildlife and birds - wonderful and so varied. The camps clean and food amazing. All staff were obviously happy in their work and the guides so informative - how do they spot so much. And of course Victoria Falls, one of the wonders of the world - enough said.

Our only experience is Hwange NP and Vic Falls, but both of these were excellent and I understand the guiding to be of high quality throughout the country.

Zimbabwe has outstanding wildlife. The scenery is varied,and just lovely. The guides are the best trained in Africa. It also offers an outstanding bush vibe.

Excellent opportunities to see big game and exotic birds in an almost indescribable setting.

Amazingggggg & Breathtaking

I first went to Zim on the year 2011 the experience was of out of this world,friendly accommodative warm people..There is no such thing as poverty in Zim like they show on TV.i visited almost every corner where many tourists don't get to go and mixed with the locals. A place called Mbare(a flea market of its out style) ,the Chinoyi caves(natural caves beautiful)Lake kariba,flea market at Borrowdale one of the most expensive well maintained beautiful structural houses in Zimbabwe. I did not do the obvious "Lake kariba" the eastern region of Zimbabwe where you have mysterious mountains. I went to Zimbabwe from that year every year three times a year. The local food I couldn't stop eating. I have visited Harare in and out(from the city to the villages)went a braai in Bulawayo. Experience Zimbabwe as it is a great country with a rich culture and visit where not may goes.

To be quite honest you can never talk about Zimbabwe and not see my eyes popping. Its a country I will visit as many times. I suggests tourists start going into the depth of the country not only what is shown when you google.

Although we saw quite a lot of wildlife, we did hope to see more but it seemed pretty quiet at the time we visited.

It seemed harder to find animals as we were driving around. We did see a lot at the two watering holes we went to.

For plus I can write that park is almost empty. You can trade the price because there is not so many people. But if you would like to see many different animals you can be disappointed. In Zimbabwe every park has something different, so you have to choosen what is interesting for you.
