New features
Light and dark mode
The site now follows your system theme by default, switching between light and dark mode automatically. You can still toggle modes manually from the top navigation if you prefer one over the other.Page timestamps
Every page now shows when it was last updated, so you can see at a glance how current the information is before you rely on it for trip planning.Breadcrumb navigation
Pages now display breadcrumbs at the top, making it easier to see where you are in the site and jump back up to a parent section in one click.Updates
Refreshed homepage layout
The homepage cards have been reorganized with cleaner spacing across the How to use this site, Why visit Zimbabwe, Heritage & history, and Quick links sections — making it faster to scan and find your starting point.Visual polish
A subtle grid background now appears across the site, and icons throughout the navigation and content have been refreshed for a more consistent look.Better discoverability
Search engine indexing is now enabled across all pages, so more of the site’s destination guides, planning tips, and directory listings will surface in Google and other search engines.New directory hub
The Directory is now a dedicated section in the top navigation with its own tab. You can browse verified accommodation, local experts, hospitality businesses, and campsites — all organized into clear categories. New pages include a Hospitality directory covering lodges, restaurants, DMCs, wellness centres, and activity providers, plus an expanded Expert directory with category-based browsing.Verification badges on directory listings
All directory cards now display verification badges so you can quickly tell which businesses and experts have been vetted. Badge tiers are colour-coded and appear alongside each listing’s name, with category labels beneath for easy scanning.Bus operator details for popular routes
The Transportation guide now includes a route-by-route table of bus operators — covering Harare to Victoria Falls, Bulawayo, Mutare, Kariba, and more. Operators like CAG, ExtraCity Luxury, Intercape, and Pathfinder are listed with estimated journey times and practical tips from local travelers.Invitation letter guidance for visa applicants
If you are applying for a Zimbabwe visa from a Category C country, the Visas and entry page now explains how to obtain an invitation letter — from hotels, tour operators, or personal contacts — along with step-by-step tips for using the eVisa portal.Improved page descriptions for search
Descriptions across all 116 pages have been audited and rewritten to be unique, concise, and optimised for search engines. This means more accurate previews when you find our pages through Google or other search engines.Bug fixes
- Fixed duplicate heading display across all content pages
- Resolved rendering errors on directory and expert listing pages
- Fixed broken card layouts on several destination and planning pages
