Frequently asked questions

Can I drink tap water in Zimbabwe

The tap water in some areas of Zimbabwe is fine to drink while it is not in others. We would recommend that you always drink bottled water to be safe during your time away and to eliminate any worry you may have.

What is the food like in Zimbabwe

Zimbabwean cuisine is strongly influenced by Europe, with pasta, rice and potatoes readily available. On safari, you will generally be served European style cuisine with an African twist.

What is the service and accommodation like in Zimbabwe

You can expect a high level of service at your accommodations and from your guides. Guides in Zimbabwe are trained to the highest standards and they go through an extensive training process to become efficient in what they do.

What are the tourist sites to visit in Zimbabwe

You can explore a range of diverse national parks, including Hwange, famous for its huge elephant herds, to Matobo, where you will find a landscape mainly consisting of large granite rocks, home to lots of rhino. You can canoe around Mana Pools National Park, the perfect way to view the wildlife as it comes to drink. There is also, of course, the magnificent Victoria Falls. Arguably better from the Zimbabwean side, there is a range of activities to enjoy, including bungee jumping, white-water rafting, abseiling, elephant rides, horse safaris and fishing.
