Zimbabwe, a landlocked country, sits between the Zambezi and Limpopo rivers, bordered by South Africa, Botswana, Zambia and Mozambique. Historically the site of many prominent kingdoms and empires, Zimbabwe was also a major route for migration and trade. Offering an amazing variety of pristine wilderness, natural beauty and spectacular scenery, the country, emerging back on to the world’s stage for tourism, has great appeal to the safari-goer, active adventurer and outdoor enthusiast alike. Experience four World Heritage Sites declared by UNESCO – the Victoria Falls with its wide curtain of water plunging deep into the Zambezi Gorge, the spectacular giant granite boulders of the Matopo Hills, the ancient ruins of Great Zimbabwe, and Mana Pools, one of Africa’s most renowned game-viewing regions. Together with these and the lush mountain region of the Eastern Highlands and wonderful national parks teeming with wildlife, Zimbabwe is a destination that should be on everybody’s list.
