Zimbabwe Budget Travel

Sadly the country once known as the ‘breadbasket of Africa’ is in deep economic and political turmoil, and Zimbabwe budget travel is not an option at present.

Popular and safe destinations in Zimbabwe include Victoria Falls, Lake Kariba, Matobo rock formations, Great Zimbabwe Ruins and Chimanimani village.

Zimbabwe Budget Safaris

Due to the current collapse of the economy and the political unrest, Zimbabwe budget safaris are not safe at present. Resources in the country are scarce, with even the most basic of items such as bread very hard to purchase, and prices are exorbitant due to the economic crisis.

It is best and safest to travel to Zimbabwe via Zambia through Victoria Falls, and stay for a day-trip rather than a full-length holiday.
