Reach Africa, under the skilful team of Grahame and Charmaine Snow, arranged one of their magnificent birding
tours (not just birds, though 😊) to the most productive hot-spots of Eastern Highlands of Zimbabwe, from
Marondera in the north-east to Gona-re-zhou NP in the south. Grahame and 5 intrepid birders in his VW Caravelle
stayed at a mix of lodge and farm-style accommodation and spent time en route to the prime birding destinations by

including in the Afromontane areas of Nyanga, Bvumba and Honde Valleys. Now read on…
