Birding safaris with Umdingi
Birding tours with Umdingi
Zimbabwe is a birders paradise; in fact, some places like the Matobo National Park hold one of the greatest concentrations of birds of prey in the world. The country is also home to over 700 species of birds, including the national bird of Zimbabwe, the majestic African fish eagle.
Private, bespoke, authentic
You’ll set off with your own private birding tour guide either by land or water. (Why not make it both with our Umdingi multi-day trips?) And with our bespoke offerings, every experience on your trip is tailored to you. We don’t do generic or ‘off-the-shelf’ here at Umdingi!
Meet Clint, your exclusive bird guide
We only book small, exclusive trips here at Umdingi. So, you’ll have complete access to your own private birding tour guide. In most cases, you’ll be accompanied on your birding experience by the owner of Umdingi, Clint. Clint is a Zimbabwe local who grew up adventuring in the beautiful African wilderness. He’s an expert when it comes to local bird life, as well as plants, animals and local culture. He’s also there to host you, welcome you and help you enjoy Zimbabwe the way the locals do!

Some things to note before your Zimbabwe birding experience
Your safety is our absolute priority. Although our focus will be on spotting birds, you will likely also come into contact with other Zimbabwe wildlife. So, your private guide is there to keep you safe and ensure you have an unforgettable experience.
Make sure to bring plenty of skin-cover – sunhats, long sleeves, sarongs etc. But bear in mind it will be very hot, so you should wear loose, flowing fabrics like cotton.
When booking your Zimbabwe birding tour, you’ll video chat with Umdingi owner, Clint. Clint will get to know your needs and tailor the trip around you. He’ll also provide you with full information about how to prepare for your holiday. So, you can be sure you’re in safe hands!
