Linkwasha sits in Hwange’s prime southeastern corner, facing a waterhole on the edge of the Ngamo Plains — open country that concentrates the park’s famous elephant herds, its strong lion prides and dry-season buffalo in front of camp.

The camp is Wilderness’s Hwange flagship: light contemporary tents, superb Zimbabwean guiding (the continent’s hardest guide exam), and night drives and walks the private concession allows.

A note from the founders

The honest pitch

Why book Linkwasha Camp through NndeeAfrika

You never pay more than booking direct — usually less. And everything around your stay is handled.

01

A better rate, more journey

As a trade partner we access preferred rates and seasonal offers the camp doesn’t always publish — you’ll never pay more than booking direct. And a camp can only sell its own rooms; we build the journey around it: international flights, the right nights, and where you go next.

02

Door-to-door, no gaps

A private transfer waiting at Victoria Falls airport, connections timed to your route, and hosts who already know your name. Book direct and the gaps become your problem; book with us and there are none.

03

We know this camp personally

We know Hwange’s seasons — when the waterholes rule and when the plains do — and how Linkwasha chains with the Falls and Mana Pools on one set of light-aircraft hops.

04

One call if anything changes

A missed flight, a weather delay, a change of heart mid-trip — you contact one person, and we re-arrange everything behind the scenes. The camp looks after you on property; we look after the whole journey.

Linkwasha Camp FAQs

No — through NndeeAfrika you pay the same rate or better, never more. As a trade partner we access rates and seasonal offers not always published, and we also arrange your flights, private transfers and the rest of your Zimbabwe itinerary, remaining your single point of contact throughout.

Three nights — the waterhole, the plains and a hide session each earn a day.

Hwange is dry-country safari — waterholes, huge elephant herds, open plains — against the Delta’s water world. They complement rather than compete, and the Falls sits neatly between them on one route.
