Rhino Track & Trail Safari Package - Zimbabwe

Safari begins in Bulawayo and ends in Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe

Matobo Hills

This 6-night rhino tracking safari in Zimbabwe starts off at the scenic and historic Matobos. The park enjoys World Heritage status because of its valuable collection of African rock art; at least 3000 rock art sites documenting human history from the Early Stone Age.

The unique granite hills and gravity-defying balancing rocks, for which the park is known form the backdrop to your rhino walking safari where you will track rhinos and other game on foot.

The park is an Intensive Protection Zone for endangered black and white rhinos, roaming free in large numbers. Feel an unrivalled sense of awe when you encounter these magnificent beasts for the first time in their natural habitat.

The Matopos offers one of the best experiences for rhino tracking in Zimbabwe.

Hwange National Park
