Hwange National Park, Zimbabwe's largest and oldest reserve, is renowned for its vast wildlife populations, including one of Africa's largest wild dog communities and an impressive array of lions, elephants, buffalo, and both white and black rhinos.
Boasting over 100 mammal species and 400 bird varieties, Hwange offers exceptional wildlife and birding experiences. The park's limited rainfall and manmade waterholes make it a prime spot for game viewing, especially during the dry winter months.
Famous for its healthy elephant population, Hwange is ideally combined with a visit to Victoria Falls, Mana Pools, Botswana, Zambia or South Africa.
Mana Pools National Park, a World Heritage Site, captivates visitors with its abundant wildlife, scenic beauty, and the meandering Zambezi River along its border.
Named after four ox-bow lakes, 'Mana' meaning 'four' in Shona, it is a hotspot for diverse species including hippos, crocodiles, and elephants. The park offers impressive game viewing, especially in the dry season, with numerous activities like walking safaris, canoeing, boat cruises, and fishing.
Recognized for its stunning landscape and opportunities to observe endangered wild dogs, Mana Pools is a favorite for its riverside camps and unique wildlife experiences.
Victoria Falls, known as Mosi-oa-Tunya or 'the Smoke that Thunders', is Zimbabwe's top attraction and a grand finale to many safaris.
As the largest waterfall in the world by combined height and width, it offers a plethora of adrenaline-pumping activities like white-water rafting, bungee jumping, helicopter flights, micro-lighting and sunset cruises.
The town of Victoria Falls, nestled in a national park, also offers a host of gentler experiences like romantic river cruises and cultural tours.
A gateway to Southern Africa, it's an ideal start or end point for itineraries extending to neighboring countries.
