Day 8, Gweru to Bulawayo
Today we head towards Bulawayo, which is the 2nd largest city of Zimbabwe and the drive is along a very scenic route. Bulawayo has a very relaxed atmosphere and unusual broad streets as it was built in the times when roads had to be wide enough so that a full span of oxen could be turned around in it. Today many of the British colonial building have been preserved and are classified as heritage sites, so this city is not short of interesting places for visitors.
Day 9, Bulawayo
Today the Matobo National Park is on our agenda to see the famed lack eagles, rhino and leopards. There is much to explore in this ancient area with caves and rock paintings.
Day 10, Bulawayo to Victoria Falls
Today we turn the trucks north towards one of the seven natural wonders of the world and a the perfect highlight on which to end this overland adventure tour; Victoria Falls. The Falls have fascinated generations of visitors and it is easy to see why. The local name for the Falls is Mosi-ao-Tunya, which means the Smoke that Thunders and the 100 meter high and 1700 meter wide falls are truly thundering water smoke.
Day 11, Victoria Falls
This is the final day of your overland adventure tour and you can spend it relaxing or you can chase a few adrenaline rushes. You can bungee jump from the Zambezi Bridge, go white water rafting or take a flight over Batoka Gorge, the Falls and the islands above the Falls.
There is a huge variety of optional activities such as golf, horse riding, parachuting, several cruises and a visit to the crocodile ranch and snake park. It is suggested that you give yourself a few days at the Victoria Falls to unwind after your 11-day overland adventure between Johannesburg and the Vic Falls.
