SELF DRIVE ZIMBABWE

Dramatic landscapes and diverse wildlife are just some of the attractions that draw visitors to this incredible country, but the northwest of Zimbabwe is where the drama and life of the party are.

The gem of Zimbabwe, the remarkable Victoria Falls, also known to the locals as “Mosi oa Tunya” (the smoke that thunders), fed by the mighty Zambezi River and spread generously between Zambia and Zimbabwe, drops a spectacular, thundering 108m into an adrenaline junkie and wildlife enthusiasts’ fantasy. Arguably one of the biggest tourist attractions in Africa and known as one of the seven natural wonders in the world, the Victoria Falls is a powerful sighting.

Beyond the plunge of the Falls is a plethora of activities, from bungee-jumping off the Victoria Falls bridge, to white-water rafting, sunset cruises along the Zambezi River, ziplining across the amazing Batoka Gorge, and of course, game spotting in the country’s largest game reserve, Hwange National Park Zimbabwe.

SELF DRIVE HIGHLIGHTS
