Matopos
Matopos National Park also popularly known by many as the Matobo National Park, is one of Southern Zimbabwe’s most scenic and beautiful regions. 35km south of Zimbabwe’s second capital city which also happens to be the second biggest Matopos National Park covers an area of about 424 km².
The park is well known for its unending range of balancing rock formations formed over 2,000 million years ago with molten rock erupting across the landscape and then created by the erosion of the granite plateau with the unique Nswatugi Caves which house Stone Age rock art. The park is also famous for its significant population of black eagles and both black and white rhinos
High up the Matobo balancing rocks is the burial place of Cecil John Rhodes. Famous for its vista clear to the horizon, the site is famously known as ‘World’s View’ as it gives a breathtaking panorama view of the Matopos National Park.

Self Drive Safaris
For those with an adventurous spirit Self-Drive Safaris should be right up your sleeve getting you closer to the essence of Africa. Go on the driver’s seat and have the freedom to explore and discover amazing African wonders in your own time. Apart from your pre-arranged accommodation and route you will have no prescribed schedules or time limits. The benefit of a self-drive safari extends into every corner of your trip. Spend as much time as you wish photographing zebra if you feel like it, or take that remote and less travelled road in case it yields exciting wildlife sightings. You are very much in the driver’s seat, with full control as you drive out into the wild.
Self-Drive safaris are also less costly compared to organized Guided Safaris. Nothing beats exploring Africa at your own pace and in your own time. Zimbabwe Safari Company arranges your entire Zimbabwe Self Drive Safari, including car rental, insurance, accommodations and any necessary activity bookings. Our Travel Experts are happy to help with in-depth travel advice and put together tailor-made Self Drive Itineraries that best suit your preferences and budget.
Camping Safari enthusiasts can get 4WD campers that come fully equipped with rooftop and/or ground tent or a pop-top with rooftop sleeping area, fridges, gas stove, cooking equipment and cutlery, bedding, camping tables and chairs.
