Best Places To Go
Your African holiday in Zimbabwe will most certainly be one for the books, with its large array of acclaimed locations, wildlife and activities. No idea where to go? Here are some of our top picks:
Victoria Falls
This world-renowned African landmark, and appropriately named The Smoke That Thunders, is one of the SEVEN natural wonders of the World; and is a definite must on your to-see travel list if you want to experience incredible views and make memories that will last a lifetime.
Situated on the iconic Zambezi River, you can enjoy white water rafting, exceptional safaris within the Zambezi National Park, sunset cruises with uninterrupted panoramic views of African wildlife, and a bird’s eye view of the majestic Falls as you fly over them in a helicopter (Flight Of Angels).
Chiredzi
Take a step into the untouched Zimbabwean wilderness, and experience the phenomenal Malilangwe Wildlife Reserve which is bursting at the seams with African wildlife. In particular, it boasts a high concentration of elephants, white lions, as well as endangered black and white rhinos for you to see.
This scenic reserve is also known for its spectacular sandstone outcrops, mopane forests, and baobab trees. Its lake has a rich diversity of fish — making it a dream destination for every nature lover, wildlife enthusiast and angler to visit, with exceptional game viewing and catch-and-release fishing to enjoy.
Hwange National Park
Hwange is Zimbabwe’s biggest and oldest national park, founded nearly 100 years ago, and its untouched landscape is home to the second largest elephant population in the world! It boasts a diverse landscape ranging from desert, to grasslands, to woodlands; and an equally diverse wildlife for you to explore.
With its incredible abundance of animal and bird species living within its natural borders, you can expect an exceptional game drive and bird watching experience during your stay, and since Hwange is a proverbial stone’s throw away from the mighty Victoria Falls, you can add that onto your list of experiences too.
Mana Pools National Park
Situated in the heart of the Zambezi Valley — Mana, meaning four in the local Shona language, refers to the park’s four large and spectacular pools; and this UNESCO World Heritage site is truly one of the wildest parts of Africa teeming with wildlife and over 350 bird species, waiting for you to take it all in.
Experience this scenic landscape in all its glory with game walks, game drives or even expertly guided canoe trips as you watch the clear African sky turn blood-orange as the sun disappears below the horizon, and the elephants head over to the water’s edge to eat the soft grass on the river banks.

Best Time To Go To Zimbabwe
Game Viewing: May to October.
Winter is most definitely considered the best time to visit Zimbabwe, as it’s dry with almost no rain, boasts moderate temperatures, and is a great time for safari.
September and October are EXTREMELY hot though, but still good to view Zimbabwe’s game.
Victoria Falls: April and May.
The Falls are in full flood after the rainy season and offer the most dramatic views during this time.
White Water Rafting: August to December.
These months fall under Zimbabwe’s low water season, thus the volume and speed of the water at the Victoria Falls is reduced, and the rapids are more exposed.
