Tour of the Month

a Pools with its roaming herds of elephant and buffalo, experiencing the enchantment of the Zambezi in your own canoe is undoubtedly the way the African bush was meant to be seen.
The Tamarind Canoe Safari consists of 3 nights and 4 days. Early on day one your group will be transferred from Kariba by open 4×4 vehicles to Chirundu, arriving approximately 11h30.
A safety talk and demonstration of how to paddle a canoe will be followed by the first day’s canoeing stretch of just over 18km. That evening you will set up camp on the Island of Kakomarara, where there is time to bath, relax and have dinner.
Day Two covers 27kms of breathtaking African bush and ends at Lone Acacia Island. Day Three meanders down 23km and ends on Trichelia Island. Day Four is a light 7km paddle to arrive at Mana Pools with its teeming wildlife at 10h00 where the canoes are loaded on to the vehicles for the return trip to Kariba.
The safari is semi-participatory i.e. you can participate in setting up and taking down the camps (if you choose) and is suited to clients who have an adventurous spirit and who enjoy a truly outdoor experience. The Tamarind Safari rates are USD$550 per person and include road transfers from Kariba, all your meals, teas, coffees & cordials, all equipment and the services of a qualified canoe guide.
