Kavinga Safari Camp
Run by Kavinga Safaris · Apr–Nov
About
A seven-tent camp on a cliff in a private concession on the southern edge of Mana Pools, 42 km from the Zambezi, overlooking a pumped waterhole in the Ruckomechi riverbed. A short walk leads to a water-level hide where elephants drink almost at eye level; Wild Eye says the camp has two waterholes, both with photographic hides. Drives, night drives and walks run from camp.
