Mana Pools

Mana Pools is the Zimbabwe bank of the Zambezi where walking safaris are the point. The river, the albida trees, and elephants at eye level are the memory.

Why go

It is wilder and quieter than Hwange's waterholes. Three or four nights. The walks are not optional scenery from a vehicle.

    On foot

    A guide, a small group, and a morning on foot. This is the trip for people who want that. If you want to stay in the car, choose Hwange or a falls lodge.

Costs

Mana is a specialist safari. The price is the guide, the exclusivity, and the remote setting.

It is not the cheap Zimbabwe option. Sample trips that include it show the guide. Visas and international flights are extra.
