Why Budget Doesn't Mean Basic
Zimbabwe on a Budget from Salem
Zimbabwe is Africa's most underrated destination — a country of extraordinary natural wonders, ancient history, and genuine warmth that has been largely overlooked by international tourism during decades of political turmoil. Victoria Falls, shared with Zambia, is one of the seven natural wonders of the world — a 1,700m wide curtain of water crashing 108m into the Zambezi Gorge with a roar and spray visible from 50km away. Hwange National Park has one of Africa's largest elephant populations. The Great Zimbabwe stone ruins — a 12th-century city built without mortar — give the country its name and hint at an extraordinary pre-colonial civilisation. Mana Pools is one of Africa's last places for walking safaris alongside hippos and elephants on the Zambezi floodplain.
