Day 3: Victoria Falls to Hwange National Park

This morning after having a hearty breakfast, you will make the journey south to Hwange National Park. Home to the Big Five, Hwange National Park also offers a wide variety of plains, game, and birdlife. You will swap to open safari vehicles today for your afternoon game drive and make your way into the famed Hwange National Park for your game drive which is situated in the far west of the country. Hwange lies in the incredible belt of Africa, spreading out into the neighboring Botswana hence permitting animals (elephants in particular) to wander freely between Hwange and Chobe National Park. Aside from elephants, this park is home to more than 100 mammal species including Africa’s Big Five (made up of leopard, lion, elephant, rhino, and buffalo), as well as plenty of giraffes, cheetahs and brown hyenas. The reserve is also famous for its high concentration of wild(painted) dogs.
