The Hwange Experience



This back to basic, Hwange National Park Experience will take you back in time preserving the charisma and charm with which the Safari Industry first began. During your stay in Hwange, you will stay in areas rarely visited by anybody else and encounter something that not many a safari enthusiast would ever get to experience, sleeping in tents under the star-lit night sky with nothing but the canvas wall of your tent separating you from the outside! Jackals barking, lions roaring as they advertise their presence to all and owls hooting, are just some of the night sounds that you can look forward to hearing during your four nights. Sitting around early morning fires, complete with coffee and biscuits, or dinner around the evening fire, you will truly experience the romance the African wilderness has to offer.
ITINERARY HIGHLIGHTS
Discover the array of wildlife in Hwange National Park during day game drives, with sightings including elephant, lion, giraffe and hippo but to name a few.

Summary of Itinerary
Day 1
Transfer and Overnight Hwange National Park campsite
On meeting your private guide, you will immediately be on your way into Hwange National Park and on towards the first campsite for the next two nights. Depending on what time you arrive in camp, and after some refreshments, a sundowner game drive will be undertaken – you will make your way to a spectacular waterhole where you will spend an incredible evening, sipping on ice-cold drinks, basking in the African sunset as a multitude of animals and birds make their way to the waterhole. Your first day will finish with dinner beside the camp fire, underneath the star-filled sky; it will be easy to sit back in your chair, chat about the day’s experiences.
Day 2
Game Drives
An early morning wake-up with sunrise, a freshly brewed mug of coffee made on the early morning fire, and most definitely a discussion on all the noises from the night before – what a way to start a day. Was it elephant or hippo making the grunting noises as we lay in our tents? Today we will explore an area less travelled in the north of the park, a full morning’s drive with continental breakfast packed for the morning ahead. Freshly-made lunch back in camp with either a siesta in your tent or in one of the hammocks in the shade of your chosen tree with your book and binoculars! The afternoon will be spent at another pan where large numbers of game tend to frequent the waterhole in front of you; as all this unfolds, drinks will be served, and after sunset, a slow drive back to camp for another great night in the wilderness around the camp fire.
