About Zimbabwe

Flanked by the mighty Zambezi river in the north and the languid Limpopo river in the south, Zimbabwe is a bush-lovers paradise, representing an Africa still largely wild and untamed. Despite recent political problems, Zimbabwe remains a nation of friendly and hospitable people, renowned for their wonderful service ethic and tourism culture. For the quintessential African bushveld experience, there is little to beat this magical destination, with its expansive wilderness areas, huge herds of wildlife and breathtaking Victoria Falls. The name Zimbabwe derives from "Zimba Remabwe" meaning "big house of stone" in the country's main Shona language - a tribute to the former capital of the Empire of Great Zimbabwe.
