Why Visit Zimbabwe?

Seasons of Wilderness, Wonder, and Warmth

No doubt many people have heard of Zimbabwe's number 1 attraction, Victoria Falls, one of the Seven Natural World Wonders. But not many people are aware of Zimbabwe's wildlife treasures, including Hwange National Park, Lake Kariba, Matopos and the very special Mana Pools. Those are the main safari areas where you have the chance to be led by highly qualified guides on foot, by vehicle or by boat, searching for animals and imparting their knowledge every step of the way. Each game reserve offers different landscapes, wildlife and safari activities, which is why we recommend to combine at least 2 parks for your Zimbabwe safari.

➡ Big Five Bonanza

Zimbabwe is a haven for the iconic Big Five – lion, leopard, elephant, rhino, and buffalo.

➡ Beyond the Big Five

Zimbabwe's magic extends far beyond the Big Five. Keep your eyes peeled for cheetahs, zebras, giraffes, and a multitude of antelope species.

➡ Unique Encounters

Embark on a walking safari in Mana Pools and get up-close (safely, of course) with wildlife. Canoe safaris on the Zambezi offer a thrilling perspective, with elephants cooling off meters away from your boat.

Best Times to Visit Zimbabwe

Seasons of splendour in a land of giants and thunder

Zimbabwe is a year-round destination, with each season offering something special—from thundering falls and dramatic game viewing to tranquil rivers and golden light. Here’s our guide to the best times to plan your Zimbabwean adventure:

☀ May to October – Dry Season & Peak Safari Time

Clear skies and sparse vegetation make for exceptional wildlife viewing in Hwange and Mana Pools. This is the best time for walking safaris and catching large congregations of elephants at waterholes.

☀ June to August – Cool and Comfortable

Mild temperatures and low humidity make these ideal months for game drives, especially in southern and western parks. It’s also a great time to see big cats on the move.

☀ November to March – Green Season & Birding Delight

With the arrival of the rains, the landscape transforms into lush greenery. This season is perfect for photographers and birding enthusiasts, as migratory species arrive in abundance.

☀ February to May – Victoria Falls at Full Flow

For those wanting to witness the awe-inspiring power of Victoria Falls, these months offer the most dramatic water volume and spray—ideal for scenic helicopter flights and boat safaris.
