Zimbabwe Safari Tours and Vacation Packages

Q: What are the best safari destinations in Zimbabwe?

Zimbabwe boasts several top-tier locations, including Hwange National Park, known for its vast elephant population and predator sightings; Mana Pools National Park, famous for its walking and canoe safaris; Victoria Falls, one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World; and Lake Kariba & Matusadona National Park, ideal for houseboat safaris and remote wildlife encounters.

Q: How can my safari trip contribute to conservation efforts in Zimbabwe?

By choosing eco-friendly lodges and responsible tour operators, your trip directly supports conservation. Many lodges reinvest in anti-poaching units, community education, and wildlife research. Opting for a low-impact experience, such as walking safaris or visiting private conservancies, further helps preserve Zimbabwe’s natural beauty.

Q: How much does a Zimbabwe safari vacation package cost?

Zimbabwe safari packages start at $10,200 for a 12-day itinerary, but prices can vary depending on the destinations, level of accommodation, and included activities. At Zicasso, we offer custom tour planning where our experts help design your dream vacation at no added cost, ensuring a personalized experience that fits your budget and travel preferences.

Q: What makes walking and canoe safaris unique compared to traditional game drives?

Walking safaris in places like Mana Pools allow you to experience the bush up close, tracking wildlife on foot with expert guides. Canoe safaris on the Zambezi River offer a thrilling water-based adventure, letting you observe elephants, hippos, and crocodiles from a unique perspective. These options provide a deeper connection to nature compared to traditional vehicle-based game drives.

Design My Dream Trip

The ruined city of Great Zimbabwe exudes an ancient magnificence, having once served as the royal palace. The roaring waters of Victoria Falls inspire those who venture to them, often described as one of the greatest natural spectacles to behold. For an unforgettable adventure, explore exclusive safari tours and packages at Hwange National Park, renowned for its high levels of privacy, exceptional game drive experiences, and a thriving elephant population.

South Africa, Zimbabwe, Botswana Tour Review: 10 Nights

Our first trip to southern Africa was amazing, exceeding all expectations. We saw everything we came to see, and more. The game rides were well structured and safe, the visuals were unbelievable, and taking a side trip to Victoria Falls was a great idea. The accommodations were quite luxurious, despite being considered mid-range. There was always someone there to greet us and guide us at every travel point.

Zicasso's tour operator tailored our itinerary to our wishes and was wonderful to work with. Things couldn’t have gone better.
