The ‘territory’ of this camp is built into the thick riverine forest located on the Zambezi River’s edge, in the private 118,000 hectares (291,000 acres) Sapi Private Reserve east of Zimbabwe’s Mana Pools National Park. All tents offer their own private indoor lounge area, outdoor swimming pool, (with exercise bikes on a wide veranda) and outdoor dining area combining canvas and stone walls. Each tent comes complete with a Canon professional camera and lenses, plus Leica binoculars for guests to use whilst they are with us in Sapi.

Activities, excursions and other attractions during your stay at Tembo Plains Camp

Guided excursions

Early mornings or late afternoons are the best times to explore these vast, wild expanses. Led by experienced guides, by foot or in a four-wheeled vehicle, you’ll encounter the animals and birdlife of the Sapi reserve. Follow in the footsteps of buffalos, elephants, lions, giraffes, zebras, waterbucks, eagles and baboons, and you’ll feel in harmony with nature, and experience unique adventures that will forever remain etched in your memory.

Water safaris

The river is a living entity in its own right, packed full of animal life. Board Tembo Plains Camp’s private boat, in the company of an experienced guide, and you will encounter solitary crocodiles or herds of hippos in the waters of the Zambezi. Depending on the water level, you can watch this ballet of the river's inhabitants during a dawn cruise, or embark as the sun sets while sipping a cocktail.

Discover a biosphere unique in the world

Formerly dedicated to hunting, the Sapi private reserve is now a sanctuary dedicated to the preservation of its fauna and flora, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Located to the west of Mana Pools National Park, it is today one of the most densely populated animal sanctuaries in Africa. Enjoy the wild and unspoiled beauty of its 830,000 acres, from which you will bring back breathtakingly beautiful photographs and unforgettable memories.
