Travelling to Zimbabwe
One of Citiliner’s most prominent set of routes allows customers to travel to and from Zimbabwe on one of its many semi-luxury coaches at some of the best rates in the country. It is important to remember, however, that since Zimbabwe is an international destination, the restrictions and requirements for boarding and travelling in general may vary from trips to other cities within the country.
Firstly, travellers from South Africa to Zimbabwe are legally required to have a valid South African passport on hand in order to both book the trip and to cross the border. South African passport holders are not required to apply for or carry a visa in order to get into Zimbabwe.
If you have recently visited a Yellow Fever risk area, then you will need to vaccinated before your trip, and Tetanus, Hepatitis A and Malaria vaccinations are highly recommended, as Zimbabwe is a general risk area for those diseases.
Also, because Zimbabwe is generally considered a highly unstable country due to its volatile political state, it is highly recommended that you take as many safety precautions as possible. When possible, do not travel alone, refrain from carrying cash, make sure your passport is accessible at all times and know your surroundings as well as you can beforehand.
Citiliner offers semi-luxury bus trips all over South Africa in stylish coaches, at some of the most affordable rates on the market.
