For guests in search of a truly authentic African safari, Camp Mana captures the essence of adventure with grace and simplicity. This intimate tented camp blends old-world charm with unpretentious luxury, offering all the modern comforts of home without ever losing touch with the untamed spirit of the African bush.
Nestled along the banks of the mighty Zambezi River in the heart of Mana Pools National Park, Camp Mana provides guests with an experience that is both immersive and sustainable — a perfect harmony of comfort and wilderness. Powered almost entirely by solar energy, the camp’s design reflects a deep respect for nature, leaving only the lightest footprint on the land.
Guests stay in spacious Meru-style walk-in tents, each standing 2.4 meters high and equipped with en-suite flush toilets and hot showers. The central gathering point — a beautifully designed communal lounge and dining area — offers panoramic views across the Zambezi River toward the dramatic mountains of the northern escarpment.
Every element of the camp has been created to enhance, rather than intrude upon, the surrounding wilderness. Solar power runs the camp, with a small generator available only for emergencies.
Camp Mana operates with a strong ethos of “touching the earth lightly.” As a seasonal camp, it is completely dismantled and stored for four months each year, allowing the natural environment to rejuvenate and remain unspoiled. This deep respect for nature is woven into every aspect of the camp’s operation — ensuring that while guests experience the wild, the wilderness itself remains preserved for generations to come.
