Zimbabwe Safaris
Southern Africa’s Hidden Gem
Zimbabwe might be Africa’s best kept secret. It combines the perfect mix of wildlife viewing, conservation, and outdoor adventure (think kayaking, walking above Victoria Falls, and safari by railcar!). We take you far from the crowds and immerse you in a land of more than 50,000 elephants, where you can get out of the safari vehicle on bush walks and even view wildlife up close from an ingenious underground look-up blind.

Everything You Need to Know
Zimbabwe has a distinct “dry season” (May-early-November) and “green season” (late-November-April). Both offer fantastic wildlife viewing possibilities, making it a great destination to visit all year round. Each season in Zimbabwe has something unique to offer, with a diverse range of wildlife and a small fraction of the crowds other countries in Africa receive. See below for a full explanation of Zimbabwe’s different seasons to decide when is best for you.
Zimbabwe’s varied landscapes and world-class wildlife viewing offer seemingly endless opportunities for exploration—we’ve highlighted our favorite activities below!
We have carefully selected our accommodations for their exclusive locations—away from the crowds and in the heart of the wilderness, their high level of comfort and service, and their commitment to community and conservation.
You will find our intimate lodges to be relaxing oases after the thrill of a day on safari. Enjoy multi-course, gourmet meals under the stars, spacious and secluded tents and chalets, with en-suite indoor and outdoor bathrooms and hot showers.
We believe in the power of tourism to empower local communities and have selected lodges that employ a similar philosophy. Camelthorn Lodge was built on communal land bordering Hwange National Park, providing employment and putting tourism dollars directly in the hands of the local people.

WT is deeply committed to the interconnected relationship between responsible tourism, local communities, and conservation. Zimbabwe is a shining example of how impactful this can be. Our trips donate directly to a wide array of initiatives such as sponsoring schools, dental care, eye care, solar water pumps, anti-poaching teams, and most recently bringing white rhinos back to a community-owned conservation area around Camelthorn Lodge in Hwange National Park—for the first time in over 50 years!
