Travel in Zimbabwe

A beautiful country that is easy to travel to and relatively safe by African standards. The music is world-class and the game parks, together with Victoria Falls and the Zambezi River, are two of the most special places on earth. The Zambezi is still one of the world's most spectacular places to go rafting or canoeing, after which you spend the night in a hut where the elephants literally walk by.
Go on a canoe safari. For example, at Lake Kariba you can rent a boat for a day or even a week to see the elephants and buffalo (and many more species of game) along the edges of the lake. The Zambezi River is also great for canoeing.
Walk in the eastern highlands of Zimbabwe. For example, try climbing Mount Nyangani in 1.5 hours, from here you have a beautiful view of northern Zimbabwe.
See elephants in Hwange National Park. One of the last places in the world where many elephants still live in the wild, there are about 40,000 left in this park.
Walk through Mana Pools National Park, one of Zimbabwe's most beautiful game parks along the Zambezi River.
See ancient wall paintings in Matobo National Park, close to Bulawayo. Huge spectacular rock formations with beautiful caves.
Visit Harare, it is the capital of Zimbabwe, with beautiful parks and beautiful architecture. Also visit the museum of modern art. The city is also known as the "Sunshine City".
Do visit the second city of Zimbabwe: Bulawayo, rich in history and with the national museum of Zimbabwe.
Zambezi National Park is not to be missed, this nature park runs along the Zambezi.
Be prepared to be confronted with the contradictions between rich and poor.
