The sound of a lion roaring at night is incomparable. Visceral and consuming, it rattles your entire being, filling you with a heady mix of awe, fear and admiration. The following silence as even the smallest of birds and insects go quiet shows the reverence the ‘king of the jungle’ is held in.  It’s an experience you cannot miss, and it’s one best enjoyed on safari in Mana Pools National Park in Zimbabwe. 

A UNESCO World Heritage Site, Mana Pools National Park offers you a true African safari experience thanks to its remote location, an abundance of wildlife and incomparable natural beauty. It’s a wonderland with renowned biodiversity, home to the biggest concentration of hippo and crocodile in the country, as well as large herds of elephant and buffalo and an amazing array of birds. Whether it’s a walking safari with an informative and reliable local guide or a canoe safari down the mighty Zambezi River, a trip to Mana Pools is an immersive experience that’s difficult to describe. Hekaya would love to give you the opportunity to enjoy this outstanding destination for yourself.
