Zimbabwe By Activity

Additional Information

Visa Requirements

You will need a visa to enter Zimbabwe. Visas can be obtained from the Zimbabwean Embassy in London or on arrival in Zimbabwe. If you have not obtained a visa before travelling, bring enough cash with you in small notes to pay for your visa on arrival. The vis cost is currently US$55pp for a single-entry visa. Your passport should be valid for a minimum period of 6 months and have 3 blank pages left in it to enable you to enter Zimbabwe and exit via one of the neighbouring countries.

Zimbabwe now also issues eVisas, allowing you to apply for and pay for your visa in advance of arrival. The eVisa is not mandatory, and visas are still available on arrival for UK, US and most European passport holders. Please note that if purchasing an eVisa you must do so within a month of travel, and not earlier, as the visas typically have a short validity.

A Kaza visa is available at Livingstone and Lusaka airports, and Zambian land borders. This means that tourists can visit both countries, plus day trips to Botswana, while holding only one valid visa. The visa applies to all countries that currently require visas for both countries (including the UK). It costs $50 and is valid for 30 days.

Kilimanjaro & Pongwe

Boy, it was the most amazing trip, climbing to the top of Africa, relaxing next to the Indian Ocean...!
