Gorgeous landscapes hiding splendid habitats, thrilling wildlife encounters and friendly people make Zimbabwe a destination well worth visiting. What sets it apart, however, is the lack of crowds, something its southern African neighbours cannot always claim. Remote parks with excellent guides make for superb game viewing especially if a walking safari is on your list.
The Big Five are all here, including 650 species of birds, but so are an abundance of other creatures—almost 200 mammals and more than 100 fish species. Here legendary safari experiences come in all forms. Hwange National Park, Malilangwe Wildlife Reserve, Mana Pools and Lake Kariba are all highlights. Yet, Victoria Falls, and all the ways to experience this crashing curtain of water, is perhaps one of the biggest.
