Top Zimbabwe Experiences

  • Gazing at awe-inspiring Victoria Falls, also known as “The Smoke That Thunders” for its roaring waters that send mists billowing high into the air.
  • Braving some of the adrenaline-pumping adventure activities at Victoria Falls -- including bungee jumping and “gorge swinging” -- that have earned it the moniker “Adventure Capital of Africa.”
  • Enjoying a memorable walk with lion cubs on the open savannah at Antelope Park near Victoria Falls.
  • Going whitewater rafting on class V rapids or taking a tamer sunset cruise on the Zambezi.
  • Watching herds of elephants crash through the trees and underbrush at Hwange National Park, Zimbabwe’s largest.
  • Taking a boat ride on tranquil Lake Kariba, where hippos and crocodiles bathe in the waters and lions and elephants hunt or graze on shore.
  • Canoeing at Mana Pools National Park along the Zambezi, camping along the way on a multi-day river safari.
  • Tracking rhinos in Matobo National Park, also rich in bird life, rock formations and ancient rock art.
  • Visiting the extensive millennium-old  Zimbabwe Ruins, the legendary home of the Queen of Sheba.
