Hemmed between the Zambezi River in the north and the Limpopo River in the south, Zimbabwe is a wildlife and wilderness gem. Once again politically peaceful and stable, it is reclaiming its reputation as one of Africa's premier safari destinations, and the warm and friendly Zimbabweans are eagerly welcoming guests to enjoy their country’s natural wonders.
These attractions remain undiminished and include the Victoria Falls, and Mana Pools on the floodplains of Africa's Great Rift Valley, as well as countless other areas of natural beauty.
Mostly blanketed with savannah grassland in its central and western regions, with tropical evergreen forests in the eastern highlands and rock formations to the north, Zimbabwe’s variety ranks it in the top 40 most beautiful habitats in the world.
