Zimbabwe is a landlocked country in Southeast Africa, which makes it a fantastic addition to a holiday in South Africa, Botswana or Namibia. Once known as ‘the jewel of Africa’, much of Zimbabwe is covered by national parks, mountains, and the Limpopo, Save and Zambezi rivers. The latter converges on the border with Zambia to form Victoria Falls, one of the world’s largest waterfalls and probably the country’s biggest attraction.

Llama Travel’s Zimbabwe extensions, applicable to a number of our African itineraries, are a fantastic way to conclude a trip with a visit to the spectacular Falls while uncovering even more of the destination’s wonderful wilderness and wildlife.

Botswana is one of Africa’s most rewarding safari destinations, known for its vast open plains and exceptional wildlife viewing. From the waterways and floodplains of the Okavango Delta to the wildlife-rich parks of Chobe and Moremi, travel here is about slowing down and spending time immersed in the bush. Game drives are relaxed, camps are comfortable and well-located, and the focus is entirely on the natural world around you.

For many people, a safari holiday is one of the most aspirational travel experiences on earth. It can, however, be daunting, too. In Llama Travel’s nearly 25-year history of selling holidays, we have heard many customers’ concerns about visiting a new place or experiencing a different kind of holiday for the first time. The most common questions from first-timers considering a safari holiday often relate to wild camping, the heat on the plains, and the early wake-up calls for game drives.

Libby, a Product Executive on Llama Travel’s expert team, had many such concerns before her first safari experience. In this blog, she breaks down her experience as a first-timer on safari, addressing some of the common questions and concerns our customers voice before committing to a safari holiday—and, more often than not, having an excellent experience when they travel.

All of our staff at Llama Travel have travelled extensively: before you book your holiday, wherever you want to go, you can speak to someone who has been there. It’s one of the 7 reasons that our guests trust Llama Travel for their holidays.
