Vundu Camp offers an authentic yet deeply comfortable safari experience in one of Africa’s most iconic national parks. With front-row views of the Zambezi River and access to a private concession in Mana Pools, this permanent tented camp combines classic charm with unforgettable wildlife moments. It’s a place where guests can feel the heartbeat of the bush and experience the wild in its purest form.
Exceptional Location
Set beneath a canopy of riverine forest, the camp rests right on the banks of the Zambezi, just steps from the water’s edge. The peaceful setting offers panoramic views across the floodplains, where elephants, warthogs, and antelope wander freely. Being in a private concession allows for more exclusive game viewing and flexibility with activities.
Unique Activities
Vundu offers a rich selection of guided experiences tailored to your interests. Explore the wilderness on walking safaris with top-tier guides or enjoy day and night game drives in open vehicles. Canoeing down the Zambezi adds a serene, close-to-nature perspective, while fishing and pontoon boat cruises offer both relaxation and unexpected wildlife encounters. Birding is excellent both in camp and nearby.

Vundu Camp features eight spacious, thatched chalets, including a dedicated family suite. Each unit faces the river and comes with its own private terrace for relaxed wildlife viewing. Rooms are equipped with twin or double beds, mosquito nets, en-suite bathrooms with indoor and outdoor showers, and thoughtful extras like fans, charging stations, and laundry service.

My home away from home
“This was my 4th trip to Camp Vundu and the best yet! The wildlife viewing and the guides at this camp are exceptional. I have been to this camp three times before and this time was the best yet. This year I went to Camp Vundu twice and each day was adventure. The best part of this camp is the fact that no day is same and the nothing is scripted.” Date of stay: September 2024
