Zimbabwe has hotels that cover the spectrum elaborate luxury safari lodges to eco-friendly simple mobile camps and everything in between. The common denominator of them all is the people; warm welcomes and exceptional guiding in Zimbabwe are infamous.
For jaw-dropping décor and unbridled luxury, we have handpicked some fantastic permanent luxury lodges where guests – when not wildlife viewing – can unwind in complete comfort. To be a little more in touch with the surrounds, we have tried and tested some more authentic traditional tented camps where without compromising on comfort you’ll feel a little more in touch with the surrounding wilderness. For a real sense of adventure and to sleep completely in remoteness, our Zimbabwe experts recommend a private mobile camp. Here, hot bucket showers and safari toilets ensure basic needs are met but the real magic is being able to have the sound of the African bush as your soundtrack as you drift off to sleep and to share stories around a campfire without a single light in the vicinity.
