“Stop! Buck, Look! Ground hornbills.” I pointed out the passenger window to three blackbirds, striding through the charred ashes, beaks tucked in, three masks, and bulbous throats flashing red amongst a landscape of burnt black. They were on the lookout for insects and rodents.
The Eastern Highlands region of Zimbabwe is one of the most beautiful areas in the country. Well known for its stunning landscapes, it has a lot to offer the nature lover who is hungry to explore. The area has a wide vegetation profile due to its rich soils, high altitude, and plentiful rainfall. One of the distinctive plants that are associated with the Eastern Highlands is the Protea. The Protea is a flower variety that is only found in Sub Saharan Africa and is quite abundant in neighbouring South Africa. It is a very diverse plant that has over one hundred subspecies.
The Bayete Collection is a group of luxury lodges located in Victoria Falls. The group has three comfortable guest lodges Bayete, Phezulu, and Nkosi. The three lodges are close together and have similar styles, although each lodge targets a different market and clientele.
Kavinga Safari Camp is an exceptional wildlife destination that offers a remarkable experience for nature enthusiasts and wildlife lovers. Situated in a pristine wilderness area of Mana Pools, Kavinga Safari Camp provides a perfect combination of luxurious accommodation, knowledgeable guides, and exceptional staff service, ensuring an unforgettable safari adventure
On our latest trip to the resort town of Victoria Falls, we had the pleasure of visiting the recently opened Palm River Hotel. Palm River is a 4-star facility that is a sister property to Ilala Lodge. We were completely impressed by the hotel itself and the experience as a whole. The hotel is a beautiful piece of architecture that uses a lot of local elements to come up with a property of world-class standards. There is a stunning walkway that leads to the entrance. The replica of the Victoria Falls Bridge is quite remarkable. The landscaping around the property is really top-notch as well. All the main areas have evocative artwork or statement pieces as foyer furniture.
It was 5 pm and we were headed toward the Whovi Wild Area exit and back to the campsite, we were to sleep in. Whovi is part of the Matopo Hills National Park in Zimbabwe’s Matebeleland province. There, in a slashed fire-break with the golds of those perfect last hours of daylight flashing liquid-white on their black backs were a calf and cow. White rhino. Casey who had spotted the pair laughed, “well here we go again, more of that picture book stuff”
Shongwe Lookout is a luxury Bed and Breakfast that is located in Victoria Falls. The lodge was opened just two years ago and it has already claimed its stake among the neat accommodation options in the resort area. The My Guide Team managed to visit the lodge recently and we were very impressed.
I believe no Victoria Falls trip is complete without going on a river cruise. There is something incredibly relaxing about being on the water and being surrounded by all that beauty. On a recent trip to the resort town, we had the pleasure of sampling a sunset cruise aboard the Zambezi Explorer. The Zambezi Explorer is under the Pure Africa stable; it is one of three fine vessels on which they are offering leisure experiences on the Zambezi.
