Mana River Camp offers excellent game viewing in Mana Pools National Park on guided game drives, safari walks, as well as canoeing on the Zambezi River and fishing.
In the morning, a light breakfast is served in the main area of Mana River Camp where everyone gathers to plan what everyone will be doing that day. You can depart on a morning nature walk or game drive.
Your knowledgable guide will teach you about the Mana Pools area and how to understand the animal habitat better by learning about their migration patterns. Learn about different animal tracks, how to distinguish between animal dung and lots of interesting wildlife facts.
Did you know that Mana Pools National Park has one of the highest concentrations of wild dogs in Africa and it is the only known area in which elephants stand on their hind legs to browse?
After brunch back at camp and some relaxation time, you can enjoy a delicious afternoon tea followed by another game drive. Your guide will try to track some of the wildlife you haven’t seen yet - have your cameras ready!
