Introduction

The southern circuit of Zimbabwe is suitable for those who have already been to Victoria Falls and have limited time. You start off by flying into Bulawayo and then head for the Matobo Hills and Rhodes grave. A five hour drive sees you arrive at Norma Jeans near the Great Zimbabwe ruins. Be fascinated by the history of this ancient city. Another long drive through interesting country will end at Chilo Gorge Safari Lodge on the banks of the Save River and Gonarezhou National Park. The big herds of elephant here and the amazing Chilo Gorge make this journey well worth the effort. Now head for cooler climes in the Eastern district mountains of Bvumba and Nyanga. Leopard Rock and Troutbeck Resort await your pleasure. Scenic and dramatic this region will enthrall the traveler. Finish your safari at the very plush 5 star Meikles Hotel in Harare - a truly world class establishment. Fly home from Harare to Joburg to end this visit to this emerging destination.
