Zimbabwe
Where the wild heart of Africa roars—untamed, majestic, and unforgettable.
Zimbabwe is home to one of Africa’s greatest treasures, Victoria Falls, where the Zambezi River plunges over 350 feet, sending mist into the sky. But beyond the falls, Zimbabwe is a top-tier safari destination, offering exceptional wildlife encounters in Hwange National Park, known for its massive elephant herds and diverse predator populations.
Mana Pools National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is famous for canoe safaris, where travelers paddle past hippos, crocodiles, and elephants along the mighty Zambezi River. The Matobo Hills offer a mix of history and wildlife, where ancient rock formations hide San rock art and black and white rhinos roam freely. For those seeking adventure, cultural depth, and wildlife in a raw, unspoiled setting, Zimbabwe delivers an authentic and unforgettable safari experience.
