View Michele’s ProfileSpend the next three days exploring the beautiful Matobo Hills! Your schedule at the safari camps are flexible, but today we recommend a late lunch, followed by a sundowner walk up to the nearby granite koppies.
Join your local host for a compelling tour of the San (Bushman) rock art. You may also opt for a bike ride to the nearby villages, where your guide will lead you through the typical homesteads—all built from indigenous trees, mud and handmade brick.
Spend the day tracking rhinos on foot with your guide—the Matobo Hills are a popular rhino breeding zone, making this a thrilling option!
Today, it's off to Somalisa Camp in Hwange National Park, Zimbabwe’s largest game reserve. Spend your days here adjusting to safari life—morning game drives, afternoon naps, swimming, meditating, the choice is yours.
Rise early to welcome the crisp African dawn with a fresh cup of coffee! Spot the elephants, buffalo, zebra, cheetahs and much more on your morning game drive. Don't be surprised if dinner is interrupted by a spontaneous stargazing session or the distant call of a lion.
More game drives and relaxation overlooking the savannah grasslands are in order today. At times, the animals may even wander onto your campground—keep an eye out for friendly elephants!
Hop on a short flight to your next lodge at Victoria Falls—arguably Zimbabwe's grandest attraction (certainly its loudest). Spend your days nestled along the Zambezi River getting to know the area.
Relax by the infinity pool, take a guided tour of the Falls, or spend time exploring the nearby town. Be sure to leave some time for an evening game drive, spending the night with some of Zimbabwe's more nocturnal residents.
Squeeze in one final safari activity before making your way back to O.R. Tambo International Airport in Johannesburg for your evening departure home. Safe onward journey!
