Fodor's Expert Review Lake Manze

Manze camp is found in the far eastern section of the reserve in a bountiful game-viewing area—just follow the well-worn elephant trail from the river to a large thatch roof spreading out over the sand floor. Meru-style walk-in tents perched between shady palms come with private verandas, flush toilets, and an outdoor shower. It's all basic but authentic, with warm hospitality and in a beautiful location. Game drives are customized to your specifications, and walking or boating safaris to view crocs, wild dogs, hippos, lions, elephants, zebras, and hundreds of bird species are offered.
