Tip: Visit during the rainy season for the most spectacular views of the falls.
Known as 'The Smoke That Thunders', Victoria Falls is one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World. The area offers various activities, from guided tours and helicopter rides over the falls to thrilling white-water rafting adventures.
Part of the Great Limpopo Transfrontier Park, Gonarezhou is a hidden gem with dramatic landscapes and abundant wildlife. It’s less crowded than other parks, offering a more intimate safari experience.
| Month | Weather | Wildlife Viewing |
|---|---|---|
| April - October | Dry and mild | Excellent for game viewing |
| November - March | Wet and warm | Lush landscapes, wildlife spotting can be tricky |
The dry season, from April to October, is generally the best time for a Zimbabwe safari holiday. The weather is pleasant, and animals are easier to spot as they gather around waterholes. The rainy season, although offering lush scenery, can make wildlife viewing challenging.
Zimbabwe is famed for its breathtaking landscapes and rich biodiversity. The country’s parks and reserves are teeming with wildlife, including the Big Five: lions, elephants, rhinos, leopards, and buffalo.
Zimbabwe offers high chances of witnessing the Big Five, alongside other fascinating species like African wild dogs, zebras, and giraffes. Birding enthusiasts will be delighted by the variety of avian species, particularly in the wetlands of Mana Pools National Park.
