Zimbabwe
Mail us for Victoria Falls fly in packages

Taking the name from the ruins of Great Zimbabwe, a fortified stone city situated in the south of the country, President Robert Mugabe changed the country's name from Rhodesia when, in 1980, the country moved to black majority rule.
The capital city, Harare, is one of the major tourist gateways into Africa; tourism is of increasing importance to the economy which otherwise relies on farming and mining for export earnings. Having suffered greatly during the droughts of the early 1990's the country is still finding its way out of the economic doldrums with unemployment being high and the question of land ownership still being an emotional issue.

Capital: Harare
Population:  10.3m
Literacy:  73%
Life Expectancy:  60 years
Per Capita Income:  US$640
Currency:  Zimbabwe Dollar (Z$)
* Note that much better rates are usually obtained in Zimbabwe when exchanging USD notes.
