Welcome to your amazing 9-day walking & canoeing Safari in Mana Pools National Park, Zimbabwe!

Having begun your journey in Victoria Falls, you'll then fly to Mana Pools NP, also a UNESCO World Heritage Site and often regarded amongst the Top 5 National Parks in Africa because of the beauty of the landscape on the floodplains, the density of Elephant and other megafauna, and the ability to walk in the superb wildlife sanctuary.

You'll enjoy the first 4 nights of a guided Walking safari with a Professional armed guide, in the Chitake Springs sanctuary region of inland Mana Pools NP. This will then be followed by an Odyssey fully backed up 4-night canoeing safari on the Zambezi River through the very heart of Mana Pools.

You will then be flown to back to Victoria Falls to travel home or your next destination.
