Local insight for your trip

If you’re staying in Harare and want to try one of the highest rated wellness centres, head to the Highlands neighbourhood. It’s a leafy part of town with several well-loved spas praised by visitors not just for quality but for their serene settings away from the city noise. Try booking an afternoon massage followed by a walk through the nearby Borrowdale Brooke Park. The combination is a simple way to wind down, especially after days of exploring the city or travelling long distances. Just remember, many places close early on Sundays, so plan your visits on weekdays or Saturday.
