PEOPLE & CULTURE
One of Africa’s jewels in terms of landscape and wildlife, but tourism declined tremendously due to political turmoil over the past few decades. As the country stabilizes, visitors realise that Zimbabwe is one of Africa’s best-kept secrets in terms of wildlife and African safaris. Its people a diverse mix of Shona-speaking (the Karanga, Korekore, Manyika, Ndau, Rozwi & Zezuru groups) and Sindebele speakers, both Bantu languages originating from when the Bantu tribe populated the region over 1000 years ago.
GETTING AROUND
The easiest way to get to Zimbabwe is to fly via Johannesburg in South Africa, with easy daily flight connections. Harare is the most common entry point; from there, domestic air services are operated between Bulawayo, Karibe Airport and Victoria Falls. Charter flights can be arranged to local safari airstrips. For self-drive, Zimbabwe has good road connections and hire cars can be collected and dropped off at all major airports. Be aware and drive with a full petrol tank as distances can be vast with few petrol stations.
