Bulawayo is the second-largest city in Zimbabwe after the capital Harare, with, as of the ever disputed 2012 census, a population of 653,337 while Bulawayo Municipal records indicate a population of 1,200,750. This understating of population by the government is due to the marginalisation of the Matabeleland region by the government since 1980 in a bid to avail less resources. With a population of 620,000 in 1992 Bulawayo cannot have a population of 653 337 20 years later when it is exhausting its land due to housing expansion. It is in Matabeleland, 439 km (273 mi) southwest of Harare, and is now treated as a separate provincial area from Matabeleland. The capital of Matabeleland North is now Lupane, as Bulawayo is a metropolitan province.

Charlie and his team made this safari experience feel truly special. Dressed up in our best khaki fever, Charlie would bring us to amazing spots in Hwange. He found all the animals (lions were requested, lions were found), while making sure everyone always enjoyed a glass of their favorite drink. Charlie is a professional guide and an excellent entertainer. We had so much fun! Charlie's camp is clean and comfy, but you shouldnt forget that you are in the middle of the wilderness. A hyena visited the camp at night and stole my shoe. If you are looking for some adventure and excitement, Taylors Africa Mobile Safaris is the right choice.

In all that there is to do around Vic Falls you might easily to miss this unique experience. Don't - unless you're seriously bothered by heights! In an amusing, highly informative and very engaging presentation we were given an unusual angle on the Falls. We learnt about the Victorian engineering pioneers who made this key link in the proposed Cape to Cairo Railway possible and we appreciated, at first hand, the skills and the bravery involved in delivering it. An absolutely unforgettable visit amongst all the excitement offered by one of the world's greatest natural wonders.
