Amalinda Lodge

A very unique lodge well worth the visit. Upon arrival at Amalinda Lodge, you will get a chance to relax in the lovely reception area, before being personally escorted to your room. The first thing you notice about the rooms, is their absolute uniqueness. Each and every room is built specifically to incorporate the beautiful […]

Matopos – The Land Of Giant Rocks!

We recently went on holiday to Southern Zimbabwe and there is one thing I’m learning about life in the tourism industry, you are never really “off duty.” Although the trip had been planned months before I started Heartveld Adventures, I took the opportunity to do a couple of site visits to lodges in the area. […]

Musango Safari Camp

If you are looking for an intimate and exclusive holiday in beautiful Zimbabwe, then you need look no further than Musango Safari Camp, which is perfectly situated on a private national parks island on the shores of Matusadona National Park on Lake Kariba. This secluded camp only sleeps 16 people, is privately run and managed […]

Kariba Bream Farm

The Kariba Bream Farm, which is located near Chawara Harbour, was originally opened not as tourist venue, but as a provider of packaged bream fish for supply to market chains for resale. During the 1990’s there was an influx of cheap mackerel into Zimbabwe, which threatened to put the bream farm out of business. During […]

Kariba Animal Wildlife Fund Trust (KAWFT)

Even before I moved back to Zimbabwe at the beginning of this year, I have always had a special place in my heart for the animals of Zimbabwe. When I lived in Kwekwe I helped set up the very first MBRC T20 Cricket Tournament in 2012 (MBRC standing for Midlands Black Rhino Conservancy). The profits […]

Tony Waite Organisation & Kariba Animal Welfare Fund Trust

Here, at Heartveld Adventures we take our responsibility to our local charities very seriously. There are two causes very close to our hearts that we support, the Tony Waite Organisation, and the Kariba Animal Welfare Fund Trust. Both do amazing work in our area and I don’t know what we would do without the selfless […]

Tony Waite Organisation

I was introduced to the Tony Waite Organisation by a local Kariba resident, Maura, who is a retired nurse and has lived in Kariba for many years. She is passionate about the Tony Waite Organisation as she actually knew and nursed the gentleman that the organisation was set up in honour of. Tony Waite was […]

Men & Their Fascination With Flying Machines

Earlier this year Spurwing Island hosted the Zimbabwe Air Rally which was organised by Marion from Experience Africa Safaris. For those of you that know my husband Woody, you will know he has an insatiable interest for anything that flies. He and his brother grew up learning how to build and fly model planes with […]
