6-DAY HWANGE NATIONAL PARK, VICTORIA FALLS & CHOBE NP

Arrival and Transfer to Hwange National Park - Night Game Drive

Upon arrival at the Victoria Falls Airport, you will be met by your guide/driver and transferred to Hwange Safari lodge - only two and half hours’ drive in tarred roads. After check in we will embark on a late afternoon game drive in the Hwange Safari Lodge estate which borders the Hwange national park – there are no fences between the main park and this estate.

This is a three hours’ drive which extends well into the night and there are good chances of encountering the big cats

Safari in the Hwange National Park

After breakfast your guide will pick you up for the full day safari in the Hwange National park using the Main Camp gate. Mineral water, soft drinks, picnic lunch and lots of refreshments will be provided and we use any one of the many viewing platform that dot the park for lunches.  You will be back at the lodge at around 16H00.

The elephants of Hwange are world famous and the Park's elephant population is one of the largest in the world. The park is home to over 65 000 elephants who in the dry season dominate all the water points in the afternoons. Other animals that can be seen in the park are lion, leopard, cheetah, rhino, buffalo, impala, kudu, sable, eland, waterbuck, zebra, giraffe, baboon, warthog and a lot more.

Safaris in the Hwange National Park

Hwange provides a safari experience to rival the great parks of East Africa - the Serengeti and Masai Mara - but without the crowds. You will have another fun filled day in the park – now looking for your favourite animal or bird and even ignoring the other now common species. On a good day you may even return to the lodge earlier as you will have seen all there is to be seen.
