Overview of your Harare tour

This is the place that gave the name of our country. Zimbabwe means a house of stone. The Rozvi people established the place around 11 Century and it flourished up to 15th Century. The place is well known as our cultural centre and also a World Heritage site (UNESCO). Well known for the Conical Tower which is within the Great Enclosure. The place boasts of beautiful and carefully constructed stone walls. Being one of more than 300 known sites, this is the biggest and the most visited by people from all corners of the Wonderful World. I am proud to be a guide to this place and use my 20years experience as a guide. Get to learn about the History and Culture. Visit the local art and craft market, sample some Chibuku, our indigenous opaque beer brewed from millet, and maize. When you visit Zimbabwe Ruins, then you have been in Zimbabwe.
