Pan-Side Safari Camp Overlooking Kanga Pan (Mana Pools)
Kanga Camp sits beside Kanga Pan — a reliable dry-season water source — offering exceptional “armchair safari” game viewing from camp. This intimate setup features just six Meru-style tents and operates seasonally (typically May to October), with guided walks and both day and night game drives in its private concession.
“Armchair safari” is clichéd. Kanga is the paradigm. If it needs water, it will visit Kanga Pan. Elephants, wild dogs, leopards, and a wide variety of other species, including nocturnal creatures under the spotlight. Enjoy the customary superlative service.

Location & Setting
Built on elevated platforms in a secluded interior section of Mana Pools, the camp overlooks Kanga Pan — the area’s key permanent water source, especially productive in the dry months. Locally sourced timber and thatch blend the structures into the woodland, creating an authentic, low-impact atmosphere ideal for nature lovers.
Rooms
Tented suites are set on wooden decks with views toward the pan. Each features a king bed, en-suite bathroom with flushing toilet and outdoor shower, a cozy seating area, and a shaded veranda. Simple, stylish décor and quality linens complete the classic bush-camp feel.
Facilities
Central areas include a lounge and dining deck, bar, fire pit, and a small plunge pool for hot afternoons. A raised platform offers relaxed “armchair” game viewing. Activities typically include guided walks and game drives; optional canoeing or fishing excursions on the Zambezi can be arranged in advance.
