Best Destinations for Kid-Friendly Travel in Zimbabwe
Hwange National Park
In 2028, Hwange National Park will be 100 years old, making it a remarkable conservation success story. It’s home to one of Africa’s largest remaining wild dog populations, alongside each and every one of Zimbabwe’s protected species like lions, elephants, and cheetahs.
Victoria Falls
Victoria Falls is indeed the crown jewel of the Kavango-Zambezi Transfrontier Conservation Area, but not just because of its incredible beauty. It’s also a hub for adventure activities for travellers of all ages, from boat safaris to nature walks.
Lake Kariba
While not officially a game reserve, Lake Kariba is a marvel of modern engineering that supports both local communities and healthy wildlife populations. It’s the world’s largest artificial lake, making it a dream destination for family-friendly water activities, fishing, and luxury lakeside accommodations. Be sure to check the water for crocodiles and hippos – after all, this is still the wild.
Five Tips for Kid-Friendly Travel in Zimbabwe
1. Book Age-Appropriate Activities
Ensure that all activities you book are suitable for all family members. Some, like bungee jumping at Victoria Falls, may have age restrictions.
2. Take Health Precautions
Consult with a travel clinic regarding vaccinations and health advice. Keep in mind that some parts of Zimbabwe are high-risk malaria areas.
3. Engage the Kids
Involve kids in planning to boost their interest. Our safari experts will be more than happy to hear all their brilliant ideas, even if they don’t make sense!
4. Plan a Flexible Itinerary
Allow for downtime and spontaneous activities when attention spans start to run low. After all, it’s not just the kids who run out of steam.
5. Secure Travel Insurance
Ensure it covers all family members and planned activities, whether you’re simply planning a relaxing bush and safari holiday or intending to climb its stunning hills.
