Situated on the banks of the mighty Zambezi Rover within the Mana Pools National Park, John’s Camp is surrounded by a Mahogany Forest that gives is an alluring safari feel. The camp is isolated and off the beaten track. And as a result of their exclusive location, visitors to John’s Camp get to spend time with herds of elephant and, buffalo, and prides of meandering lions.

The lodge has 5 luxurious Meru tents that are decked out with all the creature comforts. The tents are spaced out along the river and each affords a private deck and viewing area in front of the room looking out over the river.

It’s a magical place to stay and a much-recommended camp in the Manu Pools area.
