Day 1

Victoria Falls and Hwange

Victoria Falls and Hwange

On arrival into Victoria Falls Airport, guests will be met by their tour leader and transferred directly to a light aircraft for their flight south to Hwange National Park. This flight is not particularly lengthy, and before long you will be descending above the savanna of south-eastern Hwange. On arrival at the airstrip, you will be met by the wonderful team at Verney's Camp and transferred to the luxurious camp itself.

After a chance to settle in and, time permitting, enjoy a catnap, we recommend getting started with your game-viewing in earnest. With a private vehicle exclusively for your use throughout your stay, game drives can be tailored to your exact interests. All of the 'Big Five' can be seen in Hwange, and the area around the camp is excellent for packs of wild dog and even cheetah. The beautiful roan and sable are also regularly seen, as are large breeding herds of elephant. After an evening and night drive, you will return to camp for dinner and some rest.

Best Time To Visit July to October (Middle and end of the Dry season)

Hwange NP

Hwange NP

The next four full days are for you to explore Hwange as your heart desires. Private game drives are likely to reveal lion, elephant, giraffe, leopard, wild dog and perhaps some of Zimbabwe's last remaining cheetah. Night drives each evening are known to produce some exceptional sightings, including caracal, pangolin and aardwolf. When not on a game drive, luxuriating in camp is an excellent option, with Verney's well known for its superb hospitality despite its remote location.
