Nyamatusi Camp Highlights

Sister Camp to Nyamatusi Mahogany, this camp is also located on the banks of the ancient Zambezi River, which carves its way between Zimbabwe and Zambia. Set on the southern bank in Mana Pools National Park, Nyamatusi occupies one of the most celebrated wildlife areas in Africa. The camp itself is built sustainably, raised off the ground on elevated wooden decks and in between the natural trees, looking out over the river. It is unfenced and wildlife is free to wonder as close as they want to. The main area is a double-story, open-sided thatched construction containing a beautiful dining room, bar, and multiple lounges.

Nyamatusi Camp Game Viewing and Activities

The stories are true… Mana Pools really is one of southern Africa’s, or indeed Africa’s, most magnificent wilderness areas. It is a lush, fertile area with the supreme presence of the Zambezi River and forests of huge trees which host so many incredible species. Most special to this place are the elephants, which stand on their hind legs to reach the seedpods of the ana trees, and the African wild dogs, which thrive in this environment. Walking safaris are the custom in Mana Pools and the wildlife is habituated to seeing humans this way, giving way to exceptional sightings you’ll never forget. Nyamatusi offers canoeing excursions on the Zambezi, among hippos and crocs, and elephants that swim. Game drives are of course part and parcel, and dedicated bird-watching and fishing activities add something extra special.
