Last May, Perry had the good fortune to travel to one of the most remote camps in Zimbabwe; Jozibani. This was truly off the beaten track travel and a great success conservation success story. The camp funds an anti-poaching unit and a ranger's station. Perry knew we had to include Jozi in our annual "Zimbabwe Rising" departure so he created a dream trip.

We have designed this adventure for guests that want to experience an authentic safari that is both safe and fun.  Our program features:
 

Track rare black rhino on foot with a professional guide in Matobo National Park which also has amazing leopards and great raptors.
 
Authentic Cultural Interactions with the Matabele tribe including a visit to a homestead, an orphanage, a primary school and health clinic (all supported and funded by our camp!)
 
Visit pre-historic San bushman rock art and enjoy gentle walks to remote cave sites
 
Lodging in intimate camps and boutique lodges set in incredible locations including “rock suites” amongst giant boulders, forest villas perched amid ebony trees, and luxury riverside tents on the banks of the Zambezi River.
 
An exclusive ride on the famous Elephant Express train through Hwange Nat'l Park along the historic train route of the Victoria Falls      


Game Drives in Hwange National Park which boasts one of the largest herds of elephants in the world, excellent lion and wild dog habitat. Night drives and even a visit to an underground “blind” where we can safely witness elephants and other creatures at a remote water hole.

A "pump run" to Jozi where we supply critical support to staff monitoring water pumps which are vital to the survival of the elephants.
 
Guided tour of Victoria Falls, curio shopping and optional high tea at the famous Victoria Falls Hotel.
 
Easy canoe safaris on the Zambezi River and side channels which allows us fantastic access to view animals up close - we will have a picnic lunch on a remote island. Optional bungee jumping, white water rafting, golf and more in Vic Falls...
 
This trip will be led by local professional guides who make the environment come alive with their in depth knowledge of the bush.
