Zimbabwe

Zimbabwe is one of Southern Africa's most beautiful regions to explore with Imaginative Traveller and home to spectacular rolling landscapes and National Parks, including two of the continent's finest: Hwange, famous for its mighty elephant herds and wild dog populations, and Matobo, well-known for its rhinos and ancient cave paintings.

Some of sub-Saharan Africa's earliest great civilisations emerged from what is today Zimbabwe, and this legacy can be seen in some of the greatest ancient ruins found in the continent - the phenomenal 11th-Century ruins near Masvingo and Khami near Bulawayo.

Zimbabwe is perhaps most famous for the magnificent Victoria Falls, which it shares with neighbouring Zambia.
