Overview
Nestled on the banks of the Zambezi River in eastern Mana Pools National Park, Chitembe Tented Camp captures the spirit of a classic bush safari—authentic, immersive, and exceptional value for money.
With superb wildlife viewing on land and water, it offers the perfect blend of adventure, comfort, and affordability.
Echoing the charm of its more exclusive sister camp, Chitembe delivers expert guiding, warm hospitality, and delicious cuisine—all without compromising quality. Set beneath ancient trees, the camp’s lounge, dining area, and bar overlook the river, with evenings spent around the fire, accompanied by the sounds of Africa’s iconic wildlife.
Guests stay in classic en-suite Meru tents, thoughtfully appointed with fans, mosquito nets, and stunning Zambezi views. Located in a more private area of Mana Pools, the camp is surrounded by diverse landscapes that attract an abundance of wildlife. Game drives, walking safaris, and river excursions with experienced rangers offer unmatched access to this extraordinary wilderness.
With exclusive river access, Chitembe is among the few camps offering top-tier boat-based game viewing. Add to that island walks and bush picnics, and you have an unforgettable safari that proves incredible experiences don’t have to come at a premium.
