About This Experience
About Hwange National Park Game Drive
Discover Zimbabwe's iconic wildlife on a guided game drive in Hwange National Park, the country's largest national park. Travel through varied savanna and woodland habitats in a safari vehicle with an experienced guide, looking for elephants, giraffes, zebras, buffalo, antelope and, with luck, predators such as lions and leopards. Learn about the park's ecosystems, wildlife behaviour and conservation while exploring the African bush. Choose a morning, afternoon or full-day experience according to the operating area, available vehicle and confirmed supplier arrangements.
