Day 1

    

Victoria Falls (Zimbabwe)

Day notes

After clearing entry formalities you will be met in the arrivals hall and then transferred to the Lodge where you can check in and from here decide what you would like to do. My recommendation is that you would go to the actual Falls themselves and enjoy this incredible spectacle of nature  - you end your day with a beautiful sunset over the Zambezi with a cold drink in the hand. Welcome to Africa.

You have a road transfer today through to Hwange National Park. This will leave after breakfast and the plan would be to get you into camp into for lunch. The first part of the journey is on a good paved road and then you turn off down a bush road and your bush safari starts from here so make sure you have your cameras and binoculars ready. When you reach the park entrance you will change over into an open safari vehicle and your game drive continues all the way into camp.

Day 3 - 4

    

Western Hwange National Park

Day notes

This is an excellent genuine tented camp in a remote part of  the vast Hwange National Park, this park is home to Africa's second largest elephant population, so if you like elephants this is an excellent place to spend time with these incredible animals and learn much about them from your expert guides.  Key to the overall safari experience here is that the guides here have many years of experience in this area and doing bush walks is a what they excel at. You can also do game drives and enjoy the amazing volume and variety of wildlife in this very productive area of Hwange. 

Day 5

    

Mana Pools National Park

Day notes

Today you will have a game drive transfer to the airstrip and then an air transfer through to Mana Pools, the flight will take about 2hrs across the Western side of Zimbabwe and into the Zambezi Valley. You will be met at the airstrip and your Mana Pools experience starts straight from the airstrip with the drive down to the camp, set right on the banks of the Zambezi River in the heart of the Mana Pools Flood plain area.

Day 6 - 7

    

Mana Pools National Park

Day notes

Mana Pools is one of the best parks in Africa in terms of its beautiful scenery and incredible density of wildlife on the flood plain. The best way to get the most from this park is to enjoy the bush walks along the flood plain, this is probably the best park in Africa to experience this and you will have a fully qualified professional guide well experienced in this area to lead you and show you more than the just the big stuff as you take in all that is around you.

Following an old elephant bull on foot from a safe distance as he feeds under the tall Albida trees that form forests in this area is a wonderful safari experience that you will always remember.
