Mana Pools National Park (Zambezi Life Styles)
After your last morning activity at Kanga Camp, you will begin your three night adventure along the Zambezi River.
The adventure of a lifetime for an experience like no other awaits over the next couple of days. This safari takes you to several prime spots of this World Heritage site allowing you to explore new territory every day.
- The camp: Each night you will end up back at Zambezi Life Styles, a comfortable 12 bedded camp on the banks of the Zambezi that is set up for the season each year. Each tent is a spacious meru-style tent with en-suite bathroom, flush toilet and outdoor bucket shower.
- The walking: There are plenty of opportunities to walk the famous floodplain of the Zambezi valley, exploring the Mana Pools wilderness areas well off the beaten track. Wildlife to be seen includes hippos, crocodiles, lions, wild dogs, leopard, hyenas, elephant, buffalo, waterbuck and many other antelope.
- The canoeing: An optional activity which will probably see you doing about 8 hours of light paddling each day in a steady current of about five kilometers an hour. The whole trip will be along the shoreline in Zimbabwe's Mana Pools National Park covering a total distance of about 50 kilometers, where you will enjoy viewing of wildlife from a totally different perspective.
