Cancellation and booking

This experience is non-refundable and cannot be changed for any reason. Booking is confirmed immediately. Final terms are the ones shown on Viator at the time you book.

Practical details

Guiding is offered in English. A mobile ticket is accepted, so there is nothing to print. Bookings are taken for up to 10 travellers at a time. At least one adult must be on the booking. The operator may cancel for bad weather, in which case you are offered another date or a refund. The departure can also be cancelled if too few people book.

Where this fits in your trip

Game viewing in this part of Zimbabwe is waterhole-led: animals come to water, so the dry season from roughly July to October concentrates sightings. Hwange is Zimbabwe’s largest national park, roughly two hours south of Victoria Falls by road, and is best known for very large elephant herds that gather at pumped waterholes through the dry months. Game viewing is done from open vehicles and, at some camps, on foot with an armed guide.
