RUCKOMECHI CAMP

Luxury Zambezi Safari Camp in Mana Pools National Park, Zimbabwe

Ruckomechi features 10 spacious tented suites, including two family units, all overlooking the Zambezi with open-plan layouts, indoor and outdoor showers, and inviting “baths with a view.” The camp’s design is earthy and elegant, with a large deck, swimming pool, star bed platform, and a lounge shaded by riverine forest. Sustainability is central, with solar power and eco-conscious practices ensuring a light footprint in this wild environment.

THE PROPERTY

Safari at Ruckomechi is multi-dimensional: enjoy game drives, guided walking safaris, canoeing safaris along the river, catch-and-release fishing, and sleep-outs on the Star Bed platform. Wildlife includes elephants, lions, wild dogs, eland, and hundreds of bird species. Bush breakfasts and sundowners round out the day, and cultural and conservation engagement is part of the journey — supporting Ruckomechi’s role as a vital buffer zone for Mana Pools’ wildlife.
