Zimbabwean guides have a reputation as being some of the best in the business and they really will show you the best of what Hwange National Park has to offer. Training is rigorous and intensive, and the successful pass rate is very low, normally below 5%. All of our memories on safari in Zimbabwe come hand in hand with fantastic guiding.
With you guide you will head out on a game-drive, early in the morning or in the afternoon, and prepare to be astounded by the wealth of knowledge you will begin to soak up. The scenery is beautiful from wide open grasslands to thick forest and home to an abundance of wildlife. While elephants are the star attraction with high concentrations in Hwange, there are large herds of buffalo and healthy prides of lion as well as a great diversity of plains game and bird life too.
