Remote Lodges in Zimbabwe Offering Authentic Safaris in Comfort

At Kamakara Safaris we believe in showcasing wildlife in remote untouched areas of Zimbabwe. Having established two camps highlighting completely different aspects and terrain of the lower Zambezi River we believe in creating an imprint for all guests. Themed from the coveted ‘Out of Africa’ film, we have constructed our semi-permanent camps to bring the campaign back to tourism in luxury.

Nyamawani Pan is focused on green energy. The camp is run solely on solar power with a diesel-powered generator for backup services. As the pan constantly needs water to be fed by numerous wells, it requires a high demand for electricity supply.

Why choose Kamakara?

Two Unique Camps to Choose From

Kamakara Safaris operates two camps in separate ecosystems: Nyamawani Pan in Mana Pools National Park and Shamashanga Camp on the Zambezi River. This gives guests access to both land-based big game viewing and river-based experiences in one itinerary.

Purpose-Built for Game Viewing

Each camp was designed around wildlife movement. Nyamawani Pan has raised walkways for uninterrupted animal passage and private views of the waterpoint. Shamashanga sits along the Zambezi with direct access to game-viewing and fishing activities.

Seamless, Low-Impact Travel

We arrange all travel to and between camps, including charter flights, boats, and vehicle transfers. Both camps run on solar power, with backup generators, minimizing environmental impact while maintaining operational reliability.
