Zimbabwe's Hwange National Park is the country's premier safari destination sitting on the country's western border with Botswana and making an exceptional extension to other Africa safaris if you're hoping to see just a few more days of impressive African wildlife, or as a stand alone safari destination. During the day, you'll have opportunities to do game drives in hopes of spotting elephant and buffalo. At night, these drives will acquaint you with the elusive nocturnal animals, like hyena, leopard, civets, porcupine, and genet cats. Safaris in Zimbabwe are commonly coupled with visits to the mighty Victoria Falls and some tours even offer a cultural immersion, visiting a local school or going on a water run to one of the vital pumps that provides water to the region.
