Destinations
Zimbabwe
Great guiding, great rivers, great falls
Zimbabwe's professional guide licence is widely held to be the most demanding in Africa, and it shows in every hour you spend in the bush. At Victoria Falls, Mosi-oa-Tunya, the Smoke that Thunders, the Zambezi pours a mile wide into the gorge below, one of the seven natural wonders of the world. Beyond it lie the elephant herds of Hwange and the floodplains of Mana Pools, where you can walk and canoe among big game in the company of people who know it intimately.
