Welcome to Discover Zimbabwe
About Me & How It Works
Hello, I'm Roland Matchett
I’m the founder of Discover Zimbabwe Trip Planner. Although I currently live in Ireland, I previously lived in both Zimbabwe and South Africa.
My personal experience and deep connections in these regions mean I truly understand the destinations I’m helping you discover — not just from a guidebook, but from living, breathing and loving this part of Africa.
It’s important to know that Discover Zimbabwe is a Trip Planner, not a booking website. Our goal is to help you plan your ideal trip, with a personal and hands-on approach every step of the way.

What We Do
Trip Planning, Not Booking
We're a Trip Planner, not a booking site
The online travel counsellor is entirely free to access. It aims to help people find holidays in Africa, particularly in Zimbabwe, Zambia, and Botswana. All travel requirements are forwarded to a Travel Agent in Zimbabwe.
The Process
How Discover Zimbabwe Works
With my hands-on approach and local expertise, you’ll enjoy a smooth, informed, and personalised trip planning experience from start to finish.
Create Your Trip Plan
Log in and select the accommodations and activities you’re excited about for your upcoming adventure!
Submit Your Enquiry
After making your selections, your trip summary—including your details, number of adults and children, chosen properties, total nights, and selected activities—will be sent directly to me at Discover Zimbabwe.
Personal Review
I personally review every enquiry. Sometimes I’ll reach out for a quick chat to better understand your preferences and ensure everything is perfect.
Agency Coordination
Only after my personal review will your enquiry be shared with our trusted travel agencies. These agencies will confirm availability for your dates, provide current pricing, and contact you directly to finalise your plans.
