A journey through untamed beauty

Zimbabwe

Zimbabwe brims with stories written in stone, river, and sky. Elephants charge through open plains, waterfalls thunder into basalt gorges, and ancient cities whisper legends of kings and trade. From the drama of Victoria Falls to the thrill of a walking safari in Mana Pools, this is a journey shaped by scale and texture. Every turn pulls you further into the wild, every pause reveals something unexpected.

An outline of your journey

Completely customisable for you

DAY

1-3

  • Arrive at Victoria Falls and settle into a lodge with views that stretch to the gorge. Explore the rainforest trails and witness the power of the falls up close. At sunset, cruise along the Zambezi River as elephants graze along the bank and birds wheel overhead.

DAY

4-6

  • Travel to Hwange National Park, where your safari begins in earnest. Track big cats and watch herds of buffalo sweep across the plains. Stay in a remote lodge where wildlife comes to you. Walk the land with expert guides and understand the delicate patterns of the bush.

DAY

7-9

  • Venture into Mana Pools, a World Heritage wilderness on the banks of the Zambezi. Here, game drives give way to canoe journeys and walking safaris. Spot elephants reaching into trees, wild dogs loping across the floodplains, and hippos rising like boulders from the water.

DAY

10-11

  • End in the southern highlands at Great Zimbabwe. This is where the country finds its name. Climb the Hill Complex and gaze across a kingdom once filled with trade, ceremony, and power. A private guide brings the ruins to life as you walk the sacred paths.

DAY

12

  • Return home with the dust of ancient cities still on your shoes, the calls of the wild still echoing in your ears, and a new map of memory carved in earth and stone.

A deeper look

Walk the wild in Hwange

In Hwange, you trade roads for open plains and quiet observation decks for front-row seats to the hunt. This is one of Africa’s best kept safari secrets. Your days blend thrilling drives with the calm intensity of walking safaris. Lions stalk in the grass, elephants gather at waterholes, and the landscape pulses with life. The lodge brings the wilderness even closer, with wildlife often strolling right past your room.

On foot in Mana Pools

Mana Pools strips safari down to its purest form. There are no fences here, just the Zambezi and everything it draws to its banks. Paddle past crocodiles, track elephants through mahogany groves, and let your senses sharpen in a place where the wild still writes the rules. Your guides know every footprint, every distant call, and they turn each outing into something you feel in your bones.

Unlocking the past at Great Zimbabwe

Step into the stone corridors of a forgotten empire. Great Zimbabwe stands as a reminder of the country’s deep cultural roots. Towering granite walls and conical towers speak of power, trade, and myth. As you explore the ruins with your guide, stories rise from the earth, connecting you to a civilisation that once rivalled the world’s great cities.

Epic beginnings at Victoria Falls

Start strong at one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World. Victoria Falls delivers spectacle, from roaring spray to shimmering rainbows. Walk through the rainforest that fringes the gorge, feel the power of the water on your skin, then unwind with a sunset cruise. Watch the river turn bronze as hippos grunt from the shallows and fish eagles call from above.
