DOCUMENTS

Singapore and Malaysia passport holders do not need a visa if travelling to Zimbabwe or Zambia. At immigration, make sure that passports have at least 6 months validity and return flights are already booked or you have enough cash to buy a return ticket.

TRAVEL ADVICE

The economic and political situation in Zimbabwe can be unstable; keep up to date with information at gov.

WHEN TO GO

Game viewing is at its best during the dry season of May to October, when animals congregate around waterholes, but Zimbabwe is otherwise a year-round destination. The rainy season lasts from December to February.
