Getting There
There are very few airlines that fly directly to Zimbabwe. Many of the international flights to Harare, Victoria Falls or Bulawayo require a change in South Africa, and then it’s only a short flight to the final destination. Most tourists fly to Victoria Falls Airport (VFA), found 18km/11mi south of the town of Victoria Falls, and continue from there by vehicle or charter plane. Hwange, Zimbabwe's most well-known park, is situated within driving distance of Victoria Falls. In most cases, your local tour administrator will orchestrate pick-up from the airport and arrange further transportation as a feature of your safari package.
