Ruckomechi Camp (www.wilderness-safaris.com) is a permanent camp set on a private concession near the confluence of the Zambezi and Ruckomechi Rivers at the upstream edge of Mana Pools National Park. It has ten spacious en-suite tents overlooking the Zambezi with a central dining room, bar, lounge, library and a separate deck for swimming and relaxing.  Its “open-air bathroom” overlooks the river floodplain and the camp also offers adventurous guests a “sleep-out” wooden deck “tree-house” option overlooking Parachute Pan behind the camp. There are many wildlife viewing opportunities from vehicles or boats in this area along with birding and walking with a professional guide.
