On arrival at one of the Lodges, you will get accustomed to the game drive by an experienced guide in a Game Drive Vehicle. There are several water holes that are in the park that your guide will travel close to in an attempt to catch the animals during their feeding time. Your guide will drive you through the park enabling you to view animals from the top of terrain. You will then be taken back to the lodge for a heavy brunch at mid day. As the suns heat cools down most animals heard for the water holes and in pursuit of game, you will be taken on your second Game Drive.

Amazing Trip
The highlight of the visit was to see Victoria Falls from the Zimbabwe side which without a doubt is the better side to view the falls but ended visiting Hwange on day trip, It was in Hwange where we saw large groups of giraffes, together with zebras, wildebeest all in the same area. We also were fortunate to see many lions here, including a family with cubs who were sleeping in road. We also were very lucky to spot Ostrich and two hippos - our guides hadn't seen one for a few months,
Response from the operator: We really appreciate you feedback and that you really enjoyed your trip and we hope to see you soon

Amazing
We stayed in Victoria falls town and even thought Hwange was 2.5 hours drive away, it was worth it. Hwange has a unique ecosystem that makes it so different to any safaris we have been on before. Our guide was knowledgeable and helpful. We all really enjoyed our day!
Response from the operator: thank you for positive feedback and hope that you will visit once this pandemic is over again, Hwange National Park is one of the largest parks in Africa, and across these rolling plains roam the last great free ranging elephant population, which gently tread between Hwange and Chobe in Botswana,

Why this scores 62
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Hwange Day Trip: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Victoria Falls.
How does Hwange Day Trip compare to similar tours in Victoria Falls?
+
It ranks #7 of the 7 similar experiences we compared in Victoria Falls, with an Outty Ranking of 62. At $250 it sits above the typical similar option ($94), so book it for what is included rather than price. Best for families and travelers who want a full-day outing.
Who is Hwange Day Trip best for?
+
It suits families and travelers who want a full-day outing best, based on its 32-hour length, all-ages access and free cancellation up to 24 hours before.
Is Hwange Day Trip good value?
+
It is a premium pick. It starts at $250, above the $94 typical for similar experiences in Victoria Falls.
How much does Hwange Day Trip cost?
+
Prices start at $250 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Victoria Falls usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Hwange Day Trip take?
+
Plan for about 32 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Victoria Falls is not rushed.
Is Hwange Day Trip worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Victoria Falls, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Hwange Day Trip?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Hwange Day Trip suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 32-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Hwange Day Trip?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Victoria Falls can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Victoria Falls and add a light layer if any part of the 32-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Hwange Day Trip start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Victoria Falls within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Victoria Falls?
+
On Outty we rank every Victoria Falls experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Guided Tour of the Falls (Zimbabwe side), Zambezi River Class IV-V White-Water Rafting from Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe & Zambia: Guided Tour of the Falls from Both Sides. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Victoria Falls?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Victoria Falls?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
