Amanzi Camp

Amanzi, the sister camp to Anabezi, was built for those travelers who prefer a more rustic feel. Amanzi camp is situated directly on the banks of the Ngwenya channel. The name "Amanzi" means water in the Tonga language and draws inspirations from the site’s intimate position on the Zambezi.  

The camp is intimate yet private with 4 tents generously spaced and connected with a raised walkway to the main area. Two of the tents are configured to function as a family tent which makes it perfect for small groups and families wanting to share an experience with this beautiful part of the world. 

The main area offers stunning views over the Ngwenya channel and a mosaic of islands that are home to a group of elephant bulls.  The main area has a pool that share the bank with the river and is surrounded by a teak sun deck.

Accommodation consists of 4 traditional safari tents, approximately 500 sq ft in size, positioned on a raised wooden deck. Each of the luxury tents boasts a spacious sitting area, indoor bathroom, and a private wood deck with stunning views of the Ngwenya channel.
