What sets Bushlore Africa Cars apart from Bushlore Africa is a five-seat Toyota Hilux 4x4 pick-up with no berths listed: it is for driving, with nights spent in lodges, guesthouses or national park chalets. In Zimbabwe, it departs from Harare or Victoria Falls. With no published address, the place where the vehicle awaits you is specified when you book.
This format suits a trip that is as much about culture as wildlife. From Harare, the road south leads to the ruins of Great Zimbabwe, near Masvingo, then to the Matobo Hills, south of Bulawayo, where there is no shortage of lodges and chalets. To the east, the Eastern Highlands, around Nyanga and Chimanimani, offer a complete change of scenery with their mountains and forests. Victoria Falls, for its part, has hotels clustered around the falls, a few hours from Hwange.
Our view: a sensible option for anyone who wants the freedom of a 4x4 without camping. As neither prices nor conditions have been recorded in Zimbabwe, the choice will be made with the offer in hand, also looking at what Britz, Asco or Caprivi offer on the same dates.
