Hideaways Africa - Best of Hwange

This 8-night journey showcases the very best of Hwange, combining time at Victoria Falls with two contrasting regions of Zimbabwe’s largest national park. It’s designed for travelers who want to experience both the spectacle of the Falls and the vast wilderness of Hwange, moving from remote, untouched corners to lion-rich grasslands.

Your adventure begins at Victoria Falls, where rainforest trails and viewpoints bring you face to face with the power of one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World. From there, you’ll travel into Northern Hwange, a remote and little-visited corner of the park. Here, walking safaris and game drives are paired with a fascinating historical element—ancient ruins, rock etchings, and a national monument tell stories of the past amidst rugged wilderness and waterholes teeming with wildlife.

The journey then shifts to Northwest Hwange, known as lion country. This is classic safari terrain: sweeping grasslands and high predator densities, with excellent chances of seeing lions alongside elephant herds, buffalo, and plains game. Evenings end around the fire, under vast African skies.

This itinerary brings together natural wonder, cultural heritage, and iconic wildlife, a well-rounded exploration of Zimbabwe at its most memorable.
