Mana Pools Encounter
Tour Description
Set in the most remote and pristine part of Mana Pools National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Kanga Camp offers an unparalleled safari experience at Kanga Pan.
This intimate, 12-bedded luxury tented camp is nestled around the only permanent water source in a 12-mile radius, making it a wildlife magnet year-round. Each en-suite tent features outdoor showers and basins with sweeping views of the bustling waterhole. Two of the tents are designed as luxury family or honeymoon suites, offering private dining and seating areas for an exclusive, intimate experience.
Imagine waking up to the sound of lions roaring in the distance, and spending your days tracking elephants, wild dogs, and leopards either on thrilling game drives or intimate walking safaris. The breathtaking natural surroundings, combined with the luxuriously rustic atmosphere of Kanga, offer a seamless connection to nature while enjoying modern comforts.
The camp’s main area includes a comfortable lounge and dining space, with uninterrupted views of the Kanga Pan, where guests can witness wildlife from the shaded upper deck or the lower deck near the splash pool. The area’s diverse ecosystems range from the Ruckomechi River's riverine forests to Mopane woodlands and Jesse bush, creating a rich and varied landscape perfect for exploration. Guests can embark on exciting walking safaris to observe the wildlife that gathers around the pan or relax on an “armchair safari,” watching animals come and go from the comfort of the camp.
In addition to game drives, birdwatching, and walking safaris, Kanga Expeditions offers easy access to the Zambezi floodplains, just an hour away, adding a riverside adventure to your inland safari. With its unspoiled wilderness and seamless blend of old Africa charm and modern luxury, Kanga promises a pure and private African safari experience.
End your days with sundowners around the campfire, marveling at the starlit African sky, and drift to sleep to the nocturnal sounds of the bush.
