A Bio-diverse Wonderland
Mana Pools National Park lies in northern Zimbabwe, along the banks of the great Zambezi River. This 2 500 km² UNESCO World Heritage Site offers guests moments of amazement around every corner.
Teeming with a variety of wildlife, it is home to over 100 iconic African mammals, including hippopotamus, crocodile, elephant, buffalo, lion, wild dog, numerous antelope and much more. This area also has the highest concentration of hippo and crocodile in the country, plus more than 450 bird species.
In addition, the remote landscape is littered with extraordinary vegetation, such as the iconic acacia trees which the elephant population flock to for much-needed shade in the dry season.
Relish in the awe-inspiring wilderness by staying at one of African Safari Camps’ luxury tented lodges.

The main area of the camp site hosts shared dining spaces, with easy to access camera charging facilities, and wholesome meals prepared with fresh ingredients by dedicated chefs. The camp also offers brilliant star gazing opportunities by campfire.
Sensational Safari
Due to the supreme remoteness, the vegetative abundance, and the easy access to water within the Mana Pools area, guests can expect to enjoy the ultimate African adventure!
Spot big wildlife such as elephant, zebra, buffalo and hippopotamus, as well as smaller, more evasive wildlife and a range of bird life, who provide the soundtrack to each day with their beautiful songs.
Scan for wildlife from your lodging or spend the day on the river, by boat or canoe, encountering wildlife playing in the water, rehydrating and even jumping into action at the sight of a predator.
This area is also perfect for guided walking safaris, traditional game drives and even thrilling evening games drives, during which lucky guests might catch sight of a leopard or two on the go.
A Tapestry of Activities
Not only can guests enjoy a tailored safari experience during their stay, but the African Bush Camps lodges also offer a number of other experiences for guests to weave into their days, in between adventures.
Guests can find respite from the warmth of the sunny days in the plunge pool on site and delight in the call of the African skimmer and the Southern Carmine Bee-eater as they tick off their birding bucket list from the shade.
They can also look forward to taking part in catch-and-release tiger fishing on the mighty Zambezi River, tracking game along the river banks and exploring the nimble turns of the powerful river by canoe.
Disconnect from the everyday by enjoying the luxury of unlimited access to the wild and the comfort provided by the on-site team.
