Luxury Zimbabwe Holidays

Zimbabwe presents nature at its finest.

From the mighty Zambezi River and Victoria Falls to diverse wildlife in its many national parks, the country leaves you spellbound. Take a helicopter ride over Victoria Falls, go on guided bush walks and observe prides of lions and hyena packs from a distance; our Zimbabwe holidays are all about awe-inspiring moments. 

Why visit Zimbabwe? 

Let’s start with the most obvious reason – Victoria Falls. Called the Mosi-oa-Tunya or ‘the smoke that thunders’, the falls are a sight to behold. If you are looking for adventure, you could try bungee jumping, white water rafting or take in the view from Devil’s Pool that is precariously perched at the edge of the falls. If you’d prefer a more laid-back experience, hike the trails of Victoria Falls National Park, take a sunset boat cruise on the Zambezi River or enjoy a walk by the river. 

Holidays in Zimbabwe are incomplete without a stopover at some of the country’s best wildlife parks that offer the quintessential African safari experience. Spot the Big Five or spot more than 400 species of birds at Hwange National Park. Paddle along the Zambezi River on a canoe safari at Manas National Park, as you spot hippos lazing in the water, or sign up for an exciting guided walking safari. 

History lovers will appreciate a tour of the Great Zimbabwe ruins, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the Matobo National Park, known for its spectacular, gravity-defying rockscapes and ancient rock art sites.
