I wouldnt travel there at the moment, if western journalists are not allowed in there, Its probably not safe for a beach holiday! I Wouldnt go there for at least a few years

Zimbabwe is very safe at the moment. Its only that in the past few years, Zimbabwean politics were not looking good. And also the president of the country is very big mouthed. He used to chide the super powers at world forums and I think that contributed to some of the travel warnings which I think are quite unjustified. Not all foreign journalists were banned. AlJezeera and SABC (South Africa), for example operated freely. The dictator in Zimabwe was simply hitting back at western countries who have imposed travel restrictions on his regime.

Even the opposition is Zimbabwe are saying the country is safe, read here:

Well, Zimbabwe is facing lots of problem and situation is very terrible indeed. The Zimbabweans are leaving their country in their billions and migrating to neighboring countries like SA, Botswana. So how is it possible to go there?

Zimbabwe is a country in Southern Africa. It is landlocked and is surrounded by South Africa to the south, Botswana to the southwest, Zambia to the northwest, and Mozambique to the east and north. The Zambezi River forms the natural boundary with Zambia and when in full flood (February-April) the massive Victoria Falls on the river forms the world's largest curtain of falling water. The Victoria Falls are a major tourist attraction. Once known as the Breadbasket of Africa, since 2000 Zimbabwe has undergone an economic collapse and the rule of law has gradually but largely broken down under the rule of President Robert Mugabe.
