Power Cuts

by Liane
(UK)

I hear from relatives in South Africa that they have a lot of power cuts. Is Zimbabwe in the same position as we are hoping to visit Vic Falls and Kariba later in the year ? Also what are the cell phone networks in the area?

Thanks
Liane

Zimbabwe not as bad as South Africa
by: Tony

Hi Liane
Power in Zimbabwe is an issue but no where near as bad as SA. Harare is the worst affected area.
In Vic Falls and Kariba you are unlikely to be affected by any power cuts. Everywhere also now has solar or generator backup, so you will be fine.
