Riverside Camp

Mana Pools National Park, Zimbabwe

About Riverside Camp

Riverside Camp is nestled along the banks of the Zambezi River within the Mana Pools World Heritage site. The camp layout is designed to capitalize on the stunning river views, with communal areas and tents oriented toward the water. This is prime territory for wildlife; elephants are often seen grazing near the camp, and the river is teeming with hippo and crocodile. The experience at Riverside is all about the dramatic intersection of river, forest, and plain. Activities are expertly led and typically involve walking and game drives that take full advantage of the park's open terrain. It is a destination that prioritizes the raw spectacle of nature, offering an evocative, authentic safari stay for those who want to be at the heart of the action.

Why we like it

The riverfront location is unmatched; the constant presence of wildlife along the bank makes for an incredibly immersive and dynamic safari experience.
