See, Connect, Protect: Zimbabwe’s Rare Rhino Experiences

Face-to-Face with Giants: Your Zimbabwe Rhino Adventure

World Rhino Day is the perfect reminder of how special and rare it is to see rhinos in the wild, and Zimbabwe offers some of the best opportunities to do so. At Imvelo Safari Lodges in Hwange, guests can join the dedicated Cobras—a team of elite anti-poaching scouts—for a powerful walking safari with rhinos. Visiting Zimbabwe for these rhino experiences means leaving with incredible memories and the knowledge that your journey directly contributes to protecting rhinos for future generations. In Matobo Hills, Amalinda Lodge offers another unforgettable experience, tracking white rhinos on foot among dramatic granite landscapes and ancient rock art sites.

Because rhinos remain so vulnerable and their numbers so low, encountering them in Zimbabwe is both a privilege and a call to action. A safari here goes beyond game drives—it connects travelers to meaningful conservation, supports local communities, and helps safeguard one of Africa’s most iconic species. Visiting Zimbabwe for these rhino experiences means leaving with not just incredible memories, but also the knowledge that your journey directly contributes to protecting rhinos for the future.

Forbes recently ranked Zimbabwe the #1 country to visit in 2025—and it's also made the cut for "The 26 Best Trips for 2026."

Insider Tip: Cataract Pool

Doug and Corinne recently visited Zimbabwe and had this advice. "Many travelers know about Devil’s Pool, but have you heard of Cataract Pool on the Zimbabwe side — 100 yards away. Having done both, we prefer Cataract Pool."

Far fewer crowds: No lines or time limits — you can truly soak in the views.
Personal experience: The owners often guide you themselves, creating a more intimate, relaxed outing.
Safer setup: You’re secured with a harness instead of relying on guides to hold you at the edge.
Same exhilaration: You still get that heart-pounding edge-of-the-falls feeling, without the chaos.
