ZIMPARKS<\/strong> has increased the Vic Falls Rain Forest entry fees with effect from today. The fees have been reviewed up to $30 from $7, Zambezi National Park entry fees reviewed up to $25 per person.<\/p>\n

In April when Zimparks wanted to increase the fees, the then Minister of Tourism, Prisca Mupfumira blocked the move. However yesterday Zimparks informed visitors and operators that prices will go up with effect from today.
