Zimbabwe is known to many as "Africa's Paradise."  Zimbabwe is unique.  Sefofane Airlines, an excellent charter company, now operates in Zimbabwe.  Wilderness Safaris now manages excellent camps in Zimbabwe, making it very comparable to Botswana.  Often, the two safari destinations are combines with Victoria Falls, the gateway to both destinations.

As a destination on its own, Zimbabwe offers:

• Victoria Falls - Natural Wonder of the world
• Safari Parks
  • Hwange National Park which offers huge populations of elephant, buffalo and antelope.
    
• Matusadona National Park situated on the southern shores of Lake Kariba is a beautiful park and offers large populations of game but includes Rhino!
  
• Mana Pools is a World Heritage Sight situated along the north eastern banks of The Zambezi River.
  
• Matopos National Park - Magnificent Granite Rocks, Bushmen Paintings, Cecil John Rhodes Grave site, Rhino tracking and much more.  Our favorite accommodations here are Amalinda Camp and Big Cave Camp.
  
• Great Zimbabwe Ruins - One of the most famous ruins in the world, located in Southern Zimbabwe near Masvingo.  We recommend staying at the Lodge of the Ancient City.
• Eastern Highlands - Comparable in scenery to Scotland with magnificent mountains, waterfalls, pine forests and trout filled lakes.  We recommend staying at Troutback Inn.

Camps

While we use a variety of camps and locations, our preferred supplier is Wilderness Safaris for camps and lodges.  Wilderness Safaris is an African adventure travel company committed to providing highly memorable, safe, educational and fun safaris.  They achieve this goal by taking their guests back in time to remote corners of Africa where they have built small, luxurious camps with plunge pools that offer an unspoiled wildlife experience.  All Wilderness Safari camps offer twice daily game viewing activities - early morning and late afternoon/evening.

Please note:  There are a variety of beautiful, all-inclusive lodges, such as Matetsi Lodge and Sekuti's Drift that are situated away from the hustle-bustle of Victoria Falls and offer game viewing.
