Zimbabwe’s, if not Africa’s, best-kept secret – that’s the general consensus of visitors to this enthralling and exclusive private reserve. Bordering Gonarezhou National Park, Malilangwe is a safari destination that’s growing from strength to strength. It’s one of the few spots in Zimbabwe where you can see all of Africa’s big five and the wildlife populations here are extremely healthy. They include one of Zimbabwe’s biggest populations of black and white rhino, as well as large numbers of cats. In fact, Malilangwe translates as ‘call of the leopard’.

Game drives reveal wild landscapes virtually untouched by mankind. The unique habitat is punctuated by rocky outcrops and dotted with the inimitable baobab trees, through which wildlife roams and the birdlife flies. A true escape from the outside world is on offer here, complemented by the immeasurable luxury of the Singita Pamushana Lodge. For African hospitality at its finest, have Hekaya tailor you an African adventure that incorporates Malilangwe.
