If you're planning to travel to Zimbabwe, particularly if you're going to be overlanding through Zim and crossing land borders, we've compiled some important tips and general advice on roadtripping in this beautiful country.

A lot of the recommendations for travelling through Zimbabwe can be applied to other countries in Southern Africa as well. Do you have any of your own tips for a camping driving holiday in Zimbabwe? Feel free to comment below and let us know.

This episode is part of a new series we're calling Know Before You Go, and we'll be adding it to a playlist of the same name, along with other future episodes in line with this topic. This is especially of use for people who are beginners or novices at overlanding, or have yet to take the plunge to visit across border or do overlanding through the regions we travel.

Zimbabwe: Beitbridge Bulawayo Railway under construction - 33 Class cabride

By January 1999, the new line from Betbridge to Bulawayo (or West Nicholson actually) was well under construction, with the route being cleared and prepared throughout and track laid to about 70km north from Beitbridge. On this video we see a pair of ex-SAR 33 Class diesels on a ballast train, offloading near Mazunga. The crew were kind enough to give me a ride for 20km back towards Beitbridge as they returned to reload.

Bulawayo in Zimbabwe, industrial capital, elegant city, tree-lined boulevards, shabby gentility

Bulawayo is in Zimbabwe. It is the second-largest city in the country, after the capital Harare, and until recently was 175, Zimbabwe's industrial capital. It is a relaxed, elegant city with tree-lined boulevards and an air of shabby gentility. However, it is worth a day or two--you can find good shopping and a worthwhile movie. It means to slaughter. This is the place where Mzilikazi had his first capital and used to slaughter his enemies.
National Art Gallery, Bulawayo, and its good art shop
Natural History Museum, that also has a historical section
The Train Museum with good historical exhibits. This includes Cecil Rhodes's private carriage. The cost is $1, and the old man running the show is friendly and eager to explain his museum.

The city's outdoor swimming pool is like something out of a 1920s movie, with its ranks of brightly painted changing booths. Lie on the grass and watch the cranes roost in the towering trees of the neighbouring botanic gardens.
