Changa Safari Camp

Changa Safari Camp is situated on the shores of the beautiful Lake Kariba, offering guests stunning views of Kariba’s sapphire waters and the Matusadona mountains. The camp was founded by the Preston and Higgins families, who wanted other families to be able to visit the beautiful and rugged landscape of Matusadona National Park and appreciate the stunning and diverse natural surroundings, as well as the incredible creatures that live here. The 6 deluxe tents and 2 family rooms are set amongst the small trees that stand along the lake’s shore, offering views over the water and the sweeping landscape. The camp’s main area is a hub of entertainment and relaxation, with a refreshing lakeside swimming pool, lounge area and bar.

Rhino Safari Camp

Hosting a maximum of fourteen guests in seven twin bedded rooms, our guests are offered a highly personalised safari experience that blends comfort and wildness. A permanent camp open year round. Respecting that we are the visitors in this wild environment, Rhino Safari Camp is unfenced and the wildlife roams freely on its established game trails. Guests are encouraged to relax and feel at home in the bush, with simplicity and classic hospitality, focussing on living in harmony with our environment and utilising silent energy alternatives as much as possible to create a peaceful environment to experience the sounds, sights and smells of nature.

Kanga Camp

Kanga Camp is situated in a private concession within the World Heritage Site, Mana Pools National Park. Guests can experience the rich flora and fauna of Mana Pools, as well as frequent sightings of predators such as lions and the endangered wild dog. The camp rests beside the calm waters of the Kanga Pan, an essential water supply for the many different wildlife and bird species who make Mana Pools National Park their home throughout the dry season. Kanga pan is the only permanent water source within a 20 km radius, resulting in a high volume of wildlife visiting the pan to enjoy a drink. Kanga camp consists of six traditional canvas tents, each positioned on raised wooden decking with incredible views overlooking the pan. All of the tents are elegantly designed with subtle wooden furnishings and floor-to-ceiling mesh netting. Kanga Camp is only open from April until December when the rainy season returns, causing the pan to flood and overflow. Because of its location within a private concession, guests will be able to enjoy exclusive safari drives and walks without encountering other safari vehicles.

Nyamatusi Mahogany

Nyamatusi Mahogany is a small and intimate camp, perfect for families who are looking for a personal and authentic safari experience in a comfortable, child-friendly setting. The Ngwana Club provides a range of fun and educational activities for children, and the family suites are positioned closest to the main area so that younger guests can easily reach it without having to walk through the wilderness. The camp is made up of just four suites, two of which are family suites, which all overlook the tranquil waters of the Zambezi River from the pleasant shade of towering and ancient mahogany trees, from which the camp takes its name. Nyamatusi Mahogany has a natural design and is powered by solar energy, causing minimal disruption to the environment. Mana Pools is known as one of the last pioneer parks, and is a haven for explorers and nature-lovers due to its diverse landscape and rich wildlife population. Take a canoe along the river and view wildlife from a whole new perspective, or embark on a game drive to find the best spots for viewing wildlife alongside the camp’s knowledgable guides.

Zambezi Expeditions

Zambezi Expeditions is a semi-mobile camp that offers guests stunning views over the floodplains of the Zambezi River and the diverse landscape of Mana Pools National Park. The camp consists of six Meru style tents that lie along the riverside. The open plains present incredible wildlife viewing opportunities as herds of elephants and impala wander across the sweeping grasslands to drink from the riverbank. Zambezi Expeditions gives guests the opportunity to explore the World Heritage site, Mana Pools National Park, and enjoy activities such as fishing, canoeing and bird watching against the backdrop of the park’s verdant floodplains and the distant escarpment across the river’s flowing waters. The semi-mobile camp is small and intimate, meaning that guests can enjoy a private and authentic safari experience in peaceful surroundings. While the camp usually tailors for up to 12 guests at any one time, a 6-bedded camp of three tents can be set up for a single group on special request. Due to its riverside location, Zambezi Expeditions closes over the rainy season and is open from April 1st until November 30th.

Chikwenya Camp

Chikwenya overlooks a beautiful stretch of the Zambezi River in the eastern section of Mana Pools National Park, one of the most remote and beautiful areas in Zimbabwe. Views extend over open floodplains down to the legendary river and across to the mountains of the Rift Valley escarpment, while stretching inland behind Chikwenya are the dense woodlands so characteristic of the area. The canvas tents are set on low wooden decks and linked to the raised main area by pine walkways. A lounge, dining and bar area offer a sanctuary of hospitality and relaxation, while a pool deck and fire place offer alternate spaces to take in the scenery and passing wildlife. The area is renowned for its large numbers of elephant, buffalo, hippo and eland, especially in winter when they concentrate along the river – these and a variety of predators can be seen from camp.

Sindabezi Island Lodge

Exclusive, private and authentic are three words which describe the feeling of Sindabezi Island Lodge. Located on an island of the same name in the flowing Zambezi River, the lodge has huts made out of natural materials and thatch roofs which make the camp feel traditional and conscious of nature, and it is this consciousness that has earned the lodge the title of one of the top 10 eco-lodges in Africa. With only five chalets, this lodge is perfect for couples wanting a romantic stay or the whole island can be booked for groups of friends to enjoy. Chalets are luxurious with large, comfy beds and features that make them unique, from toilets with a view, outdoor bathtubs, hammocks and private deckings. Enjoy dinners al fresco style, under the wide starry sky and drinks around the Boma where you can share stories of your day. Spend days exploring the other islands and the magnificent Victoria Falls or enjoy more relaxed days birdwatching, with picnics and a dip in the plunge pool.

Ingwe Pan Camp

Ingwe Pan Camp lies within the remote wilderness of Mana Pools National Park. The camp itself is within a private concession, offering guests an exclusive and personal safari experience. 8 Meru style tents overlook the pan’s southern side, guarded by towering jackalberry and nyala berry trees that offer an escape from the hot African sunshine. The tents are designed with neutral colours and made with natural materials, meaning that they can blend into the landscape without disrupting the sweeping views. Guests can enjoy watching elephants, impala and warthog playing and drinking from the water during the daytime, and most evenings you will be treated to the rare sight of a wild dog pack who visit the pan with their pups.

Kavinga Safari Camp

Kavinga Safari Camp is located in a private concession within the southern boundary of Mana Pools National Park. The camp overlooks the dry Ruckomechi riverbed and is set against the extraordinary backdrop of the Zambezi Escarpment. The camp has 7 comfortable raised tents built on the edge of a cliff, with a view of the rising sun above the magnificent Zambezi Valley floor. The herds of buffalo that drink at the neighbouring Chitake spring are frequent visitors to the area, as they traverse the valley in search of grazing. Most evenings, herds of elephant gather in the riverbed, providing a wonderful wildlife spectacle. Shyer species, like leopard, civet and genet, visit the pan right below the camp under the cover of darkness.

Khayelitshe House

Khayelitshe House gains its name from the Ndebele words Ekhaya and Litshe, which mean home in the rocks. The rural guesthouse is set among the red granite boulders of Matopo, overlooking the vast wilderness that lies beyond the rolling stone hills. The Matobo Hills are one of the largest concentrations of exposed granite in the world, and have been home to many tribes over the last few thousand years. Travellers to the area can view the incredible San Bushmen rock art and visit a number of sacred sites, accompanied by a knowledgeable guide who can teach you about the customs and beliefs that the tribes followed. Guests can also enjoy hiking, biking and exploring the amazing landscape. Khayelitshe House consists of four luxurious en-suite bedrooms and is the perfect retreat for families or a large group of friends who are looking for a private and exclusive safari experience in a truly unique setting.
