Located in 128,000 Hectares of the private Sapi Private Reserve which borders Zimbabwe’s Mana Pools National Park  is Tembo Plains Camp.  This intimate safari camp, which can accommodate 12 adult guests, offers a laid back yet luxurious feel and is the only camp in the whole of Zimbabwe to be given the honour of being a member of Relais & Château.

Guests have the opportunity to traverse over 337,000 hectares into the Mana Pools National Park, as well as the Sapi Private Reserve and the focus of this camp is to explore and enjoy wildlife and birding sightings with day and night wildlife-viewing drives, boating, canoeing or guided walks and tracking.  Each suite comes complete with a professional camera  and lenses, plus high-quality binoculars for guests to use whilst they are with us in Sapi.

Aside from the wildlife, Tembo Plains Camp is the perfect spot to relax and to soak up the beauty all around.  Guests can treat themselves to a wonderful treatment in the Spa or take a refreshing dip in the pool during the heat of the day. A stay at Tembo Plains offers a privacy of a safari, so rare today, in a wildlife-rich sanctuary along the Zambezi River

Conservation
The Sapi Private Reserve was established by Great Plains Conservation as part of their conservation mission.  This area, once a hunting ground is now a beautiful private photographic reserve that borders the Mana Pools National Park and is recognised as one of the finest wildlife destinations in Africa today.
The Sapi Private Reserve and the Mana Pools National Park offer a combined range of over 337,000 hectares of prime, protected wilderness for our guests. It is a part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site and a core area of the middle-Zambezi biosphere reserve.
