Stay Hydrated in this Heat. Gonarezhou National Park Zimbabwe

Zimbabwe’s tourism is on the rise international arrivals up and domestic travel booming, with wildlife, and culture drawing more visitors every year. A world of wonders right here in Southern Africa. The Zambezi.

Dear @MinistryofTID here is a recent video recorded by a tourist driving along this route highlights the alarming condition of the road surface. For many visitors travelling into Zimbabwe from across Southern Africa, this highway is their very first impression of our nation. Currently, the state of this critical artery is giving Zimbabwe a bad image and actively harming our tourism potential. As citizens, we look up to our government to maintain the fundamental infrastructure that keeps our country moving forward. Victoria Falls is our flagship tourist destination, and we are striving to attract higher volumes of regional and international visitors. However, we cannot expect tourism to thrive when key access routes remain in such a state of severe disrepair. These roads cannot be left unattended any longer. Urgent intervention and rehabilitation are needed not only to protect the safety of travellers and transport operators, but to project the pride, standard, and hospitality that Zimbabwe stands for. We urge the Ministry to prioritize the immediate repair and long-term upgrading of the Bulawayo–Victoria Falls Road.
