The 7 Best Nature & Wildlife Tours in Bulawayo, Bulawayo Province
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.

Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 32 reviews
We at Ride Zimbabwe believe in being active, getting out there, touching, smelling and hearing the bush. We focus on riding and walking safaris To us there is nothing better than being out on a horse in the African Wilderness. Game drives are great, but once you have experienced wildlife from horseback its hard to go back to the smelly bumpy jeep! Primarily focusing on small group (min 2, max 8) guests horse riding safaris, we have several riding safari options depending on your ability and length of time. Our rides are suitable for intermediate to advanced riders. We understand that riders in particular don’t like to be confined thus we offer bespoke itineraries to let the WALKING explorer in you get out ..TROTTING - CANTERING...!!! Ride Zimbabwe is truly a small and independently owned company, with James and Janine personally managing and running each safari.
