We’re happy to welcome guests to the newly renovated Tom’s Little Hide!
Rooms 3 and 4 have been totally rebuilt, in fact, to mirror the sizes of the existing Rooms 1 and 2, thereby able to accommodate up to 8 adults.
The Hide and Changa are delighted to welcome Zoe Carroll to our growing team. Zoe has been appointed our United Kingdom and Ireland representative for the two Zimbabwe properties from 1stMarch 2019.
Zoe’s love of Zimbabwe began in November 1995, when she took her first ever trip to Africa. “I instantly fell in love with this amazing continent and today, almost 24 years later, my love affair continues, having arranged wonderful tailor-made bespoke holidays as a tour operator to living and working in bush camps in Zambia. Now, in representation, I feel so privileged to be working in such an innovative and vibrant industry and it is a dream to be working with The Hide and Change Safari Camps.
The Private Hide located on the far side of camp at The Hide recently received a brand new swimming pool. This exclusive use option consists of an open dining and lounge area now complete with a raised private swimming pool and new fire pit for guests to enjoy.
The Hide Safari Camp in Hwange National Park, Zimbabwe, has been given a brand new look. Extensive changes were made to the main A frame, which includes the restaurant, lounge, front deck, bar and swimming pool areas.
The Hide is a founding member of the CWF and also supports the local community, a women's group and the local school through various projects plus a tree nursery/reforestation project managed by our guides. The Hide is also a member of The Long Run.

The tents are being updated with new sliding double doors for added ventilation and light in every room.
Africa and its wildlife are under serious threat more so today than ever.
In order to take action, concerned conservationists and stake holders of Zimbabwe’s Hwange National Park region have created a collaborative group and formed a not-for profit Trust, namely the Conservation & Wildlife Fund (CWF). The Hide is a founding member of The Conservation and Wildlife Fund which aims to work together with stakeholders, including other environmentalist and conservation groups, and local communities, in order to raise awareness, and provide adequate tools for the management of Zimbabwe’s precious wildlife resources. The Hide is also a member of The Long Run.
The Hide and Changa Safari Camps support Kidzcan, which envisions a compassionate world where children who suffer from cancer and their families are given the chance to lead healthy and fulfilling lives.
What may seem an unlikely association, at first, makes perfect sense when you understand that the common denominator is family – and how The Hide and Kidzcan operate from the values and traditions that also happen to strengthen the bonds of family. The Hide and Changa have pledged to contribute $1 per guest per night to Kidzcan. And they’re inviting their guests to match this dollar or more.
