TEMBO PLAINS CAMP
Where Conservation, Luxury, and Mana Pools Unite
Tembo Plains Camp is nestled within a lush riverine forest along the Zambezi River, situated in the Sapi Private Reserve—a sprawling 128,000-hectare private concession that shares its boundary with the iconic Mana Pools National Park. Once a hunting concession, Sapi has transformed into a thriving wildlife sanctuary since 2016, renowned for its vibrant populations of wild dogs, lions, and leopards.
Notably, Tembo Plains Camp stands as a pinnacle of luxury, holding the distinguished membership of Relais & Châteaux—an honor unique to Zimbabwe. However, this camp signifies much more than opulence. It embodies the visionary conservation ideals of Great Plains founders, Dereck and Beverly Joubert, who are committed to securing and revitalizing vast tracts of land for Africa's precious wildlife. Beyond being a mere camp, Tembo Plains represents a monumental conservation project in action
