- Even if Harare is not the main attraction to visit in Zimbabwe, there are still many things to do and I will share a few
- Downtown
- Bushman Rock safari
- Mukuvisi Woodlands safari
- Lake Chivero
Downtown:
- Some people will say Harare is dangerous but please do not listen. Just take care not showing off too much money or luxury but I enjoyed the city alone and I loved walking its streets
- No matter where you walk in Harare you can see thousands of street markets with lovely fruits and vegatables
- There are a few parks in the city such as Africa Unity Square
- Most building in the city are humble, being Harare Town House one of the best
- Also, right in downtown you can visit the Kopje hill to enjoy nice views of the city from both sides
- In one of my visits to Harare I went for a safari in Bushman Rock, where a guide drove us in a huge vehicle
- The fields look nice and it was a nice visit but do not expect to see much wildlife
- We also visited the winery and the staff was very nice to let my colleagues try several wines for free
Mukuvisi Woodlands safari:
- Very near Harare we experienced a horse riding safari
- I did not expect much but I actually liked this safari much more than the one before. There are only 5-6 kinds of animals you can see but you can get really close to them and it is beautiful
- As a general recommendation, avoid taking bags with you on the horse. The bag of a colleague fell into the horse, obviously the horse got scared and she fell
- That day we were lucky to see some kids of a local school visiting Mukuvisi. They were very cute and friendly :)
Lake Chivero:
- On the same day we did a short visit to Lake Chivero, but the Dam was a bit dry
- Apparently this is a popular local spot for picnics during weekends
- Also on the other side of the lake, there are several gaming safaris available for tourists which I have been recommended but I did not have time to experience yet
- Hope this post helps :)
