"Zimbabwe July/August 2023"

I visited Zimbabwe between 24 Jul 2023 and 7 Aug 2023
"This was an amazing trip, delivering everything we asked for and more. Each camp we stayed at was brilliant, the staff in each camp made it for us.

The guides at each of the camps were very knowledgeable about the local area, it's history and the wildlife. We visited a school, orphanage and a homestead whilst staying in the Matobo National Park which was very humbling and joined the anti poaching team at Hwange.

Lots of thoughtful touches at each of the camps. The organisation of the trip was seamless.

Just a big thank you for making this so special and we will be back." Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 9 on a Zimbabwe safari

"Zimbabwe - at last !"

I visited Zimbabwe between 10 Sep 2022 and 23 Sep 2022
"We waited a long time to do this trip and it turned out to be very nearly as good as we hoped.

As in life in general, there were ups and downs - Bumi Hills was a massive surprise in a good way and Nyamatusi/ Mana Pools was a disappointment.

Overall we enjoyed it hugely and it was really nice to be back in Africa again." Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 11 on a Zimbabwe safari
