Self Drive Zimbabwe
Visit Victoria Falls, home to one of the Seven Wonders of the World, the mighty Victoria Falls. Step off the plane, and right into your Avis rented vehicle, for we are but a stone’s throw from the door of the airport terminal. Here in this small, world-renowned town, Avis offers much more than the“traditional car hire services. Our services include chauffeur drive, chauffeur- drive, point-to-point transfers and specialised equipment to make your holiday experience as enjoyable and memorable as possible.
Rent a car from Avis in Victoria Falls, and enjoy the convenience of getting around the town at your own leisure. Although most of this town’s activities are carried out in the African bush, and tour operators pick you up from your hotel in suitable trucks, a hired car will enable you to enjoy, at your convenience, a tour of the Mighty Falls, (a thunderous experience, with dozens of view points – each seemingly better than the last), the Zambezi Nature Sanctuary (or Crocodile Farm – where you get to see this misunderstood creature in different stages of life), and the Falls Craft Village which features a traditional village and the fascinating “African Spectacular” which is a live and vibrant traditional dance show. You may also experience, in your hired car, the pulsating nightlife which is abound in this little town – from nightclubs and casinos, to restaurants and pubs. Golf enthusiasts and shoppers can also enjoy the convenience of using a hired car.
For those who would like to cross into Zambia to visit the Falls and get a Zambian perspective, or drive to Kasane from where tour operators using suitable safari vehicles will meet you and take you on different game activities in the Chobe National Park, Avis will arrange cross border rentals.
We can also arrange to deliver a vehicle for pick up at Kazungula border post to drive into Victoria Falls town. Vehicles can also be delivered to your hotel by professional staff.
Hwange National Park, Zimbabwe’s largest game reserve is only 100 kilometres from Victoria Falls, an hour’s drive in your Avis car. The park hosts more than 100 mammal species, including 19 large herbivores and eight large carnivores. Your comfortable accommodation will be able to arrange game drives with experienced and knowledgeable guides. A visit to the Wild Dog Project, famous for its work on protection of the endangered species will complete your stay in Hwange.
Driving around Zimbabwe with Avis
If you have a few days to tour Zimbabwe, a “World of Wonders”, and would like to know this country a little bit more intimately, then start off with a couple of nights in Harare – dubbed the “Sunshine City”. This cosmopolitan city has a host of touring activities which range from safaris to golfing and everything in between.
From Harare, drive to Nyanga,the Vumba and Mutare (272 kilometres from Harare). This part of Zimbabwe is affectionately known to most as a little England due to its pristine vegetation and cool temperatures.
