Beautiful Scenery, Enchanting Wildlife, Friendly People
I traveled to Zimbabwe as part of a 6 week safari from Nairobi to Johannesburg. My week in Zimbabwe was one of the absolute highlights. The country is naturally stunning, and the wildlife parks feel pristine and untouched.
I camped my way through Africa, and found some of the camp sites in Zimbabwe to be a little less accommodating than some of the other countries that I visited.
The people are however incredibly friendly, helpful and accommodating and they more than made up for the lack of infrastructure that exists.
On one occasion our group took a hike to a mountain cave to see some ancient wall paintings and we were caught in a torrential downpour. At the base of the mountain we discovered that a tiny stream had become a raging river. Our local guides expertly handled the situation and managed to get us all back to camp safely. That day is one of my fondest memories of the trip.
Get out there and see this beautiful country, the local people there really need you!

Zimbabwe is the most scenic country in Southern Africa. Mana Pools and Hwange are special places and Victoria Falls should be seen by everybody.
Zimbabwe offers a balanced destination with great sites and low costs. A must do for everyone
The Safari's at Zimbabwe are recommended as the hotels/ lodges are all well maintained, offer a wide variety of rooms/ accomodation types. The safaris give you great chance to view a variety of game (animals and birds) and also experience nature in its original form. The other advantage is also that the costs are not very high and there are options to suit all budgets. Zimbabwe also has the advantage of being English spoken with all people extremely polite and service oriented. All in all its a great place to visit for safaris and an experience closer to nature.

We would have rated Zimbabwe higher if we hadn't just come from a 5 star experience at three separate camps in Botswana. Also we thought Victoria Falls was overrated. We scheduled two days there - one would have been enough. Flying over the falls on our way back to Victoria Falls airport from Mana Pools was breathtaking - much better than seeing the Falls on the ground.
Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe is one of the greatest world destinations for the discerning tourist.
Zimbabwe remains beset with a myriad of political challenges. It is however a pure heaven experience to a descerning tourist. The ease of US$ currency usage is more than satisfying. By all measures Victoria Falls offers international interaction and unmatched quality of experience. So many activities complement one's experience ranging from the famous 111M Bunji to elephant rides. Scenery is as if God had extra time for creativeness at the panoramic views of Victoria Falls area and the suroundings.

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
