We saw a variety of wildlife, had incredible weather and phenomenal food at The Hide. Our guides were very knowledgeable and found some of the best wildlife during our safari. We saw lions, wild dogs, a cheetah hunt, impala, zebra and so many other animals. I cannot wait to go back.

I did a safari in Kruger Nat. pak and and Chobe- My Hwange experiece far surpased both of the others . It was more Natural - Rustic- Not as commercilized and less People. My Guide was exellant (eveen COOL). The weather ewas graet and I saw all of the BIG 5. I would do it again on my next trip to Africa.

Hwange is Zimbabwe's biggest National Park and also its premier safari destination. It's proximity to Victoria Falls makes it accessible and popular to the international safari seeker. Hwange is home to all of the big five and sightings of large herds of elephant and buffalo are common, as are good viewings of lion, leopard and wild dogs. It is also a great place to see the amazing Sable antelope in some of their biggest numbers. The park has many waterholes that the wildlife likes to congregate around, especially during the afternoon heat. Hwange is largely flat country interspersed with grassland, teak and mopane tree forest. This park is not as spectacular in terms of scenic beauty as Gonarezhou, Matusadona and Mana Pools, but the abundance of game and birdlife more than make up for this.

Hwange NP has a landscape of typical African savanna, it is rather easy to find animals at the waterholes in dry season.

Sikumi Tree Lodges is a section off Hwange National Park. It offered an unique experience. Plus we wanted to see Victoria Falls.

The animal viewing in Hwange was excellent - the best of the trip - and the accomodations were very comfortable.

It was my first experience and it was really good, but I have no reference what so ever, so it's hard to say, how good it really is. We saw 4 of the BIG 5 and a lot more, and that is the main reason you're there, right!? ;-)

We didn't bush drive at the best times of the day to spot game so it's a little hard to judge

Leon Varley Walking Safari--great, knowledgeable, friendly guide with decent accommodation and food. A treat to walk in the bush be on the same eye level with the animals.
