Zimbabwe Luxury Safari Tours
Zimbabwe is a wonderful combination of wildlife, wild landscapes and a highly professional safari industry. The national parks here and the wildlife they promise are world-class. One of the best things about going on safari here is that Zimbabwe receives far fewer visitors than most other major safari countries in southern or East Africa. That means safari trails here are rarely crowded, and there are only a handful of accommodation options in each area. This lends most safaris here a real sense of exclusivity. Even Zimbabwe’s most popular parks, such as Hwange and Mana Pools, get only a small fraction of the visitors you might expect elsewhere. Even so, the landscapes and wildlife on offer are every bit as memorable.

5 Questions About Zimbabwe Luxury Safaris

Where should I go on a luxury safari in Zimbabwe?
“Zimbabwe has so much to offer that it’s far more difficult to plan what to leave out from your trip than what to include. Hwange National Park, Mana Pools National Park and Victoria Falls are not to be missed. They’re extraordinary parks, stunningly beautiful and filled with wildlife. They also have Zimbabwe’s widest selection of luxury accommodation, with some gorgeous safari lodges and tented camps to choose from in each destination. Most luxury safaris involve flying between the parks and the other in-country destinations, and this means you can accomplish more in a shorter space of time. If time allows, you should include Gonarezhou and Matobo National Parks on your itinerary. The ruins of Great Zimbabwe, which is one of Africa’s most significant historical sites, are another definite highlight.”
1How much will this safari cost?
“You can expect to pay more than $1,000 per person per day on your luxury Zimbabwe trip. The cost does, of course, vary considerably between one operator and the next. Other variables include the number of days you’ll be traveling, the number of air transfers included in your itinerary, and the season of the year in which you’ll be traveling. The cost also depends on the accommodation. The per-person per-day price could, for example, be much higher if you’re staying in one of the country’s premier safari camps, flying between national parks, having your own private vehicle for wildlife drives, and traveling in the high season. Whatever you’re paying, remember that this could be the safari of a lifetime, and it’s almost always worth every cent.”
2What are the accommodation options?
“All of Zimbabwe’s parks and towns, as well as Victoria Falls, have excellent portfolios of high-end tented camps and luxury lodges. A recurring theme with all of these accommodation types is the spaciousness of the rooms and the high levels of comfort. Mosquito nets over the beds and en suite bathrooms are also standard. Camp and lodge staff are always attentive, and the attention to detail at these places is near faultless. The most common accommodation type is the tented camp, which usually consists of a handful of large, canvas safari tents, with luxury furnishings that evoke the classic safaris of yesteryear, and a small private terrace. There are also immaculate public spaces where you can dine and relax. Many of the camps are inside the parks and they don’t have perimeter fences, which means that animals frequently wander through camp. In such places, apart from the thrill of being this close to the wildlife, you’ll need an escort as you move around outdoors.”
3Is Zimbabwe a good choice for a luxury safari?
“Zimbabwe is an excellent choice for a luxury safari. All the ingredients for the safari you’ve always dreamed of are present, from the exclusivity of the accommodation and the quieter safari trails to the wildlife you can see and the beauty of the landscape you can enjoy. Zimbabwe is one of Africa’s most underrated safari destinations, and its highly professional safari industry is a real plus; you can almost guarantee that you’ll be exceptionally well looked after while you’re here on your luxury tour. Another big reason to choose Zimbabwe is the country’s people. Zimbabwe has higher education levels and literacy rates than many other regional countries, and the time you spend speaking with Zimbabweans will be one of the more rewarding highlights of your time here.”
4What add-ons are available?
“There are many inclusions in a luxury Zimbabwe holiday, but that doesn’t mean you can’t add in a few memorable extras. Depending on where you are and which operator you’re traveling with, you might have the opportunity to visit local towns and villages or community projects. Such projects usually have some kind of conservation element and can be a fantastic way to deepen your understanding of the region. Other excursions and activities may be possible. You can also pay extra to have exclusive use of your own private guide and safari vehicle, while top-shelf drinks are usually considered extras. Many camps and lodges can also organize a bush breakfast, where you’ll be taken out to a scenic location and served a full-on breakfast by waiters; I’ve loved it every time I’ve done this.”
