Tembo Plains Camp
Eco-tourism company Great Plains is to open its Tembo Plains Camp on 1 August 2021.
The camp will be located on the private 118,000-hectare Sapi Reserve, whose northern border is over 40kms of the Zambezi River.
The Mana Pools Reserve, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, forms the Sapi Reserve's western border.
With four guest tents, a two-bedroom family unit and a private guide tent, Tembo Plains Camp will be suited to those looking for a personal safari experience.
Tembo, meaning elephant, is tribute to the animals seen from the camp with painted dogs, buffalo, lions and leopards.
The Sapi Private Reserve borders the Mana Pools National Park and is recognised as one of Africa's finest wildlife destinations.
Activities at Tembo Plains will include day and night wildlife-viewing drives, walking safaris, canoeing and boating on the Zambezi River.
Tembo Plains will join the Réserve Collection of camps, alongside sister properties Zarafa Camp, Selinda Camp, Duba Plains in Botswana, and Mara Nyika, Mara Plains and ol Donyo Lodge in Kenya.
It will be the only Relais & Châteaux camp in Zimbabwe.
