Musango Safari Camp

Lake Kariba, Zimbabwe

Musango Safari Camp

Jump to:

Situated just off the shoreline of the Matusadona National Park, on its own island on Lake Kariba, Musango is a luxury camp. It offers walking safaris, game drives, tiger fishing and boat trips on Lake Kariba so guests can enjoy the wildlife in a number of ways.

Accommodation at Musango consists of eight luxurious safari tents, each with an en suite bathroom. Two of the tents are large honeymoon suites with private plunge pools. All the tents are set in thick forest, and face east over the lake, toward the rising sun. The camp is owner run by Steve Edwards who worked for the national parks for 18 years and on retiring set up his own camp. Steve's knowledge of the area is unsurpassable and he offers a personal and enthusiastic welcome to all guests.
