Foreign travel advice

Zimbabwe

Regional risks

This section has safety advice for regions of Zimbabwe. It only covers regions where FCDO has specific advice.  

You should also read FCDO’s overall travel advice and safety and security advice.

Rural areas

There continue to be occasional invasions of commercial farms, sometimes accompanied by violence and threats. Take care when visiting farming areas that you are not familiar with.

Mining areas

Turn back if you are stopped and told that you are not allowed to access a particular area. The diamond mining area in Marange is a restricted area.
