Destinations with a common land border

To consider a circuit, check separately the opening of borders, permits and transport. A common border does not guarantee an accessible crossing.

A specific subject for this destination

Greater Zimbabwe: A Shona Story

The ruins of Greater Zimbabwe bear witness to the shona civilization between the 11th and 15th centuries. The monumental ensemble consists of several sectors and brings a cultural subject distinct from naturalistic excursions.

- I'm a quirky father. UNESCO World Heritage Centre file.

The decision to be prepared

Choose the steps according to their access, then specify the currency of each quote. ZWG code refers to Zimbabwe Gold, also known as ZiG; payments may involve other currencies. Confirm billing and accepted means with each provider.

Do ZiG and ZWG designate two different currencies?

ZiG is the common name of Zimbabwe Gold; ZWG is his code. Also check the currency actually requested for each payment.

A step to understand and organize

Greater Zimbabwe: choosing a cultural path rather than a short stop

Source of the benchmark: UNESCO World Heritage Record. UNESCO DataHub Reference . This source documents the subject; access, tickets and transport must be confirmed separately.

The decision that changes this stage

Ask for a route that names the areas visited and explains their functions. Depending on the walking abilities of the group, a commented selection may be preferable to a program for all points without breaks. Integrate this step into your choice of bases: it adds a distinct cultural objective of a stay centered on parks or falls.

Three points to confirm before booking

  • Specify the accessible areas, sloping portions and walking conditions before stopping the course.
  • Ask for the language of the guide, the entries and the time of explanation included, separately from the transport.
  • Confirm the currency of each benefit, the means of payment and the time of return to the next accommodation.

Check current conditions

Start with the competent authorities

Before undertaking, consult the recommendations for the exact regions of the journey, the formalities related to your nationality and the countries of transit. Do not deduct Zimbabwe's accessibility or security from its presence in this catalogue.
