Zimbabwe

Hand-crafted Travel to Zimbabwe

Zimbabwe, a diverse Southern African destination, is renowned for its vast landscapes and exceptional wildlife. Victoria Falls, one of the world’s largest and most spectacular waterfalls, is particularly breathtaking during peak flow. The dry season is ideal for  game viewing in Hwange and Mana Pools National Park, known for remarkable safaris and large elephant herds. The lush eastern Highlands are perfect for nature walks and discovering hidden waterfalls, while the ancient ruins of Great Zimbabwe provide a glimpse into a once-thriving civilization. Whether exploring national parks with family, honeymooning at Victoria Falls, or enjoying a solo hot air balloon ride over the Highlands, Zimbabwe delivers an authentic African experience for all types of travellers.

  • Visit the historic Great Zimbabwe Ruins to explore the remnants of a powerful mediaeval kingdom and gain insights into the region’s rich history.
  • Enjoy game drives and walking safaris at Hwange National Park, renowned for its large elephant herds and diverse wildlife, including lions and leopards.
  • Marvel the majestic Victoria Falls, one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World, and experience the awe-inspiring cascades in thrilling helicopter flights tours above the rainforest. Stay at &Beyond Matetsi Victoria Falls for exclusive world-class amenities and personalised safari experiences.
  • Embark in boat cruises to discover the scenic beauty of Mana Pools National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site known for its remote wilderness.
  • Discover the best viewpoints with panoramic views at Matobo Hills, and witness the unique granite formations and rich wildlife, including the rare white rhino. 

Zimbabwe is very much a seasonal safari destination, albeit not quite as limited as neighbouring Zambia in terms of camp closures in the summer season.

Safaris do remain possible throughout the year, although it is worth considering how hot and wet the summer season can be and visits here are not for the faint hearted. Conversely, the dry winter months between June and October offer some of the very best safaris that Africa has to offer, with incredible wildlife viewing to be enjoyed in some of the most remarkable landscapes anywhere on the continent.

Zimbabwe Hotspots

From Victoria Falls on the western boarder with Zambia, to Gonarezheu in the south east, there is a lot to discover in Zimbabwe. The capital Harare will serve as your travel hub, before adventures to Hwange National Park or Mana Pools National Park.

Victoria Falls

The crashing deluge of the mighty Zambezi as it spectacularly plunges over the Victoria Falls is one of Africas most awe-inspiring and iconic sights. We think that the Falls are best seen from the Zimbabwean side and when you are standing close to the worlds greatest mass of falling water and enjoying the sight of double rainbows, you won’t feel short-changed.

Known by its African name, Mosi-ay-Tunya (the smoke that thunders), the Falls are now linked by dozens of daily flights and holds a reputation for being the adrenaline centre of Africa with bungee jumping, white water rafting and helicopter flights that drop right into the gorge.
