WHY VISIT ZIMBABWE

Zimbabwe is especially appreciated for its magnificent nature.

Harare, the capital, offers various points of interest: The National Gallery with its African works of art, the Harare Gardens, a small tropical forest, and many excellent evening concerts of African music. Please note, however, that there is some insecurity, especially at night.

A visit to Victoria Falls is a must: These gigantic falls extend almost 2 km in width; they are amazing to see and hear. A variety of wildlife frequents the area; buffalos, crocodiles, antelopes, lions… An unforgettable discovery.

The Hwange National Park has an area of over 14,000 square meters and offers you the opportunity to see a rich diversity of wildlife living amongst vast plains and rolling hills; antelopes, elephants, baboons, as well as jackals, hyenas, leopards, and lions.

Explore the Great Zimbabwe National Monument: These ruins are the most important historical site in Southern Africa and they are a unique testimony to the Shona’s Bantu civilization between the 11th and 15th centuries. The stone fortress is an extraordinary size, and its location adds a surprising dimension.

The Matobo National Park is home to amazingly shaped granite formations, but also numerous and diverse animals. Not to be missed!

The inter-seasons are almost nonexistent. The best time to see the wildlife is June, which is a month that is both cool and quiet, enabling you to avoid the high humidity and the tourists from South Africa.
