This 12-night itinerary takes in three superb Zimbabwean walking safari destinations - Matobo Hills, Hwange National Park and Matusadona National Park - and of course the unmissable Mosi-oa-Tunya or Victoria Falls.

At each destination, game drives are combined with walks led by professional trails guides. These walks follow game trails and are not too demanding, allowing plenty of time to stop to investigate interesting flora and fauna, and admire the wilderness landscapes.

The itinerary begins in Bulawayo and the first reserve to be visited is the UNESCO World Heritage Site of the Matobo Hills. Black and white rhino are the standout species to be spotted here. 

After three nights in Matobo, drive to Hwange National Park for a further three night of game drives and walks in the scenic northern area of the park.

After two nights in Victoria Falls, where shorter walks can be enjoyed, transfer by air to the shores of Lake Kariba and the marvellous wilderness of Matusadona National Park.

This itinerary can be modified or extended to include other walk destinations, such as Chiziarira and Mana Pools. The minimum age is 16, and maximum group size is 8.
