Greater Mana Expeditions

Over the course of your six nights, you'll move between three different locations (spending two nights in each). The communal areas are beautifully constructed of wood and canvas and there's plenty of space to lounge about on comfy sofas, drinking in the superb views of the Zambezi. The main areas are gently lit by paraffin lamps creating a romantic atmosphere that's perfect for dining like kings and queens and the barman is always on hand to serve up an ice-cold beverage. And of course, the campfire awaits for some post-dinner story telling.

Just three double or twin rooms accommodate a maximum of six guests at each stopover point. Built atop slightly raised wooden decks, the gauze and canvas tents allow for plenty of airflow and immerse you fully into in the bush (but all are quite safe). Antique wooden chests and long flowing curtains add a stylish dash of 'old-school safari' and a wooden veranda at the front has a couple of canvas chairs and a great view. The spacious ensuite bathrooms have a hot shower, double basin and a W/C.

The majority of your time on your expedition will be spent on morning and afternoon walks and canoeing on the Zambezi, but game drives are available too. Both walking and canoeing provide exhilarating, up-close encounters with all of Africa's iconic creatures, from giraffe, lions and wild dogs on foot to elephants, buffalo and hippos on the river. Though your adrenaline may well be pumping, your expert guide's top priority will be keeping you safe. And there's a ton of other things to see in between the big 'n hairies so keep your eyes and ears open at all times...
