Amazing experiencee

Zimbabwe is a magical place. The incredible opportunity to see wildlife close up, the stunning beauty of Victoria Falls could only be surpassed by the friendliness of the people. I highly recommend Zimbabwe as an amazing destination to experience all that Africa has to offer. Don't pass up on the chance to experience the true wonders of Africa.

Perfekt days in Victoria falls

We had a great time and a very nice and helpful guide Brian who made the stay very komfortable. The Dinner cruise was very nice with delicious food and wine. The early morning walk at the Victoria Falls was a perfekt timing without the crowd and lower temperatures than during the day. We recommend to do the helicopter ride. It’s a special experience and worth the money. Thank you!

A beautiful country but we must be careful to avoue unpleasant surprises

Victoria Falls are fantastic.
Zambeze cruise is very nice
The Hwange Safari is very interesting.
But visitors must be aware that security is a real problem in Zimbabwe

A very well structured tour.

Zimbabwe has a lot to offer. While there is plenty of opportunity to enjoy wildlife, there is much more. Two highlights were Great Zimbabwe and the bushman rock paintings in Matopo.

The experience was amazing

Visiting Zimbabwe was one of the most memorable travel experiences of my life. The country’s natural beauty, warm hospitality, and incredible wildlife make it a truly unique destination. The wildlife viewing was absolutely breathtaking — I had unforgettable moments watching elephants, lions, and rhinos in their natural habitats, especially in Hwange National Park and Mana Pools. The game drives were well-organized and gave me a real sense of adventure and connection with nature. The scenery of Zimbabwe is simply stunning. From the mighty Victoria Falls, one of the world’s natural wonders, to the peaceful Matobo Hills and the vast savannah landscapes, every part of the country feels like a postcard come to life. The weather was pleasant during my stay — warm days, cool evenings, and clear skies that made outdoor activities even more enjoyable. As for accommodations, I stayed in a mix of lodges and safari camps. Each place offered comfort, excellent service, and delicious local food. The staff everywhere were welcoming and went above and beyond to make my stay special.

Heaven on Earth

Thoroughly enjoyed our two weeks in Zimbabwe, visited Victoria Falls and Hwange National Park. Started our vacation at the lovely Safari Club, wildlife outside our door, fabulous food and staff, service was exemplary. Flew to Hwange National Park, first stay was at Deteema Springs, this was absolutely the best place ever, the staff were wonderful, the wildlife sightings 5*, we had the most excellent time here. We then stayed at Ingwe Pan Camp, fantastic settings, staff again were wonderful, next stop was Mana River Camp, based on the Zambezi River Embankment, wildlife all around, great staff and service. Visited and stayed at Mana Pools, what a beautiful setting, we went when it was really dry so a little sad for the animals but can only imagine what it is like in the wet season! Everything was booked through Emma at Off2Africa Tours and we could not recommend her and her Company enough, everything was absolutely PERFECT! If you are ever looking for a tour company pick them!

Exciting, beautiful and friendly.

We never felt more alive . Best vacation we ever took. The safari tours out of Hwange Natl Park were amazing and our driver, Bheki, was so informative and fun! We highly recommend this resort area and also the A'Zambezi Lodge we stayed at for our first 3 days and our last day.
Great entertainment, beautiful landscaping and pool. Bar and restaurant and a gift shop, too. all right along the Zambezi River. The wildlife that walked thru were entertaining! Baboons, warthogs, birds with amazing songs, and Vervet monkeys. Helpful staff arranged an extra tour for us during some of our free time. We walked with the white lions! How amazing this was! Visiting Victoria Falls was wonderful too, altho be sure to wear rain gear. we did and even got soaked thru the raincoat, but it was still worthwhile!

Worth it

Victoria Falls is truly a marvelous thing to see. It's is an easy and accessible trail. Be prepared to be soaked but it's worth it.

lovely Valley and touristik place but less animals

I visited Hwange NP. and Victoria Falls in Nov24 which is actually the beginn of the wet season besides the really beautyfull and lovely valleys and Nature landscapes, espacilly the VIC. Falls Rain Forest Park, there were roughly not much animals to see at this time😔😔😔. During our daily Game Drives in the morning and evening hours our ranger had a hard time to find at least some animals hidden in the savanne as they all were moving to other locations where is more water and fresh green areas. So if it comes to the decission question which park is better to visit Hwange or Chobe? I would defently say that Chobe has the richer Animal areas and more nicer green areas because of the Chobe and Zambezi river Delta landscapes and lovely areas around. It's a very popular area for the Animals which are Schilling Next to the river area. VIC Falls is a ideal place as base, to stay a couple of days as it is touristic and has a good infrastructure you can do lot of activites for effordable price levels there👌🏻

I think Hwange National Park excels in wildlife, scenic beauty, bush vibe, and birding because it offers an incredible diversity of wildlife, including the Big Five, amidst breathtakingly beautiful landscapes of dense forests, open savannas, and rocky outcrops. The park's remote location and limited infrastructure create an immersive, wilderness experience with a distinct "bush vibe". Additionally, with over 400 species recorded, Hwange is a birdwatcher's paradise, making it an ideal destination for those seeking an authentic African safari experience.
