The Wild Zimbabwe Sojourn is an 8-night journey through three of Zimbabwe’s most iconic destinations, combining natural wonder, abundant wildlife, and elegant comfort. Begin with two nights at the Palm River Hotel in Victoria Falls, where you’ll experience the awe of “The Smoke That Thunders” on a guided tour, toast the Zambezi River with a sunset cruise, and enjoy time to explore vibrant local markets or take a breathtaking helicopter flight over the falls. Continue to Hwange National Park for three nights at Verney’s Camp, set in a remote concession teeming with life — from vast elephant herds to big cats and wild dogs — best experienced on open-vehicle game drives or around the camp’s active waterholes. Conclude your journey with three nights at Fothergill Island in Matusadona National Park, a pristine wilderness along Lake Kariba where diverse activities await: explore by boat or canoe, track wildlife on foot, and soak up golden sunsets as hippos wallow and elephants drink along the shoreline. This seamless itinerary blends Zimbabwe’s dramatic landscapes with immersive safari experiences, delivering a journey both wild and wonderfully refined.
