Outside the gate
Safari company
The pocket-sized sister to Ruckomechi on the same private concession, sharing its guiding and its freedom to run night drives. With four tents it is effectively a private villa in camp form, and it books accordingly.
Why you'd pick it
- Elephants wander past the tents and the plunge pool
- Star Bed sleep-out and long Rift Valley views
- Small enough to book out entirely for one party
What's here
- Swimming pool
- Wi-Fi
- En-suite bathrooms
Arranged from the lodge:
- Game drives
- Boat trips
- Guided walks
- Night drives
- Birding
- Fishing

What the park charges on top
The rate above buys you a bed. Mana Pools National Park charges its own entry fee for every day you are inside. Here is what that adds up to.
- Park entryVAT and the tourism levy are included.
- $24per person, per day
- VehicleForeign-registered vehicle, if you are staying inside.
- $3per vehicle, per day
Three nights means three days inside, so two adults sharing one vehicle pay $153 in park fees before anyone pays for a bed.
The full fee schedule for Mana Pools National ParkRates
From about $1,040 pppn. Fully inclusive. Frequently taken on exclusive use by small groups.
What the rate covers is not confirmed. We do not know yet whether meals, drinks and activities are included, so read this as the bed only.
Every figure on this page is in US dollars.
Very few Mana Pools camps publish rates, so treat all dollar figures as indicative and confirm with the lodge. ZimParks accommodation is priced per site or unit, not per person, from the February 2026 tariff. Private camp bands reflect operator and agent data gathered July 2026; check whether park fees are included when you compare.
