Your tailor-made holiday will be as unique as you are. These itineraries are just a starting point, a bit of inspiration to show what’s possible. Your own trip all starts with a conversation with one of our Zimbabwe experts, who’ll take the time to understand what matters most to you and design the perfect holiday to match.
This is an example of an itinerary to Zimbabwe for those wanting to experience culture and history as well as wildlife and scenic beauty. This itinerary takes in the highlights of Zimababwe and three UNESCO Heritage sites – Matobo Hills, Victoria Falls and Mana Pools. The fourth destination is the largest national park in Zimbabwe, Hwange National Park, renowned for its large elephant population.
Here’s a summary of what you might get up to day-to-day on this Zimbabwe holiday. As always, this is just an idea. Every single day of your trip will be tailored to suit you.
