Ingwe Pan Camp: Our full report
Opened in 2020 Ingwe Pan Camp is located in the Mana Pools National Park, a few kilometres inland from the ...
... Zambezi River. Guests have the opportunity to both walk and drive through the Mana Pools floodplain and adjoining wilderness area.We are very familiar with Ingwe Pan’s sister camps in Botswana and Hwange National Park, operated by Machaba Safaris. We have always enjoyed our experience at their camps and are confident that Ingwe Pan will continue to offer a very similar high-quality safari experience. Camp Ingwe sits on the edge of a productive seasonal pan in the heart of the national park. The 7 spacious tents are well equipped with en-suite bathrooms.
Our view
We have always been very impressed with our experiences at Machaba Safaris camps and are confident that Ingwe Pan will continue to be a top-class camp in this remote part of the Mana Pools.
