Getting there

Car

If you're traveling by car, begin your journey in the town of Kariba. Head southeast on the A5 highway towards the town of Nyamhunga. After about 30 kilometers, you will come to the junction for the B61 road. Turn right onto B61 and continue for approximately 50 kilometers. You will reach the entrance to Tashinga Camp, which is a popular rest stop and tourist attraction near Lake Kariba. Please note that the road may have some gravel sections, so a vehicle with decent ground clearance is recommended.

Public Transportation

For those using public transportation, take a bus from Harare to Kariba. Buses leave frequently from the main bus terminal in Harare and the journey will take around 4-5 hours. Upon reaching Kariba, you may need to hire a taxi or a local minibus to take you to Tashinga Camp. The taxi ride will take about 30-40 minutes, and be prepared to negotiate the fare, which should be around $15-$20 USD. Ensure you have cash on hand, as many local drivers may not accept card payments.

Combination (Car + Boat)

For a unique experience, consider driving to Kariba and then taking a boat to Tashinga Camp. Drive to the Kariba Boat Club where you can rent a boat. The boat trip to Tashinga Camp takes about 1-2 hours depending on the type of boat. Rentals can vary in cost but expect to pay around $100-$200 for a half-day rental. This option provides a beautiful view of Lake Kariba and its islands, making for an unforgettable journey.
