About Warthogs Safari Camp

Warthogs Safari Camp is Cameron Harvey Safaris' small, friendly and rather unique and affordable camp on the outskirts of Kariba town. Despite its close proximity to urban life, it's nestled in mopane scrub on the shores of the lake and is bang in the middle of a game corridor, so exciting close-up game viewing is a common past time.

The Safari Camp is a perfect stopover location before houseboat trips, canoe trips and ferry trips or just to chill for a few days. We currently offer accommodation for up to 11 people by way of en-suite safari tents. We also have a small area with dome tents (with bedding and solar lighting) and 3 sites for camping. We supply all bedding and BASIC braai equipment; you only need bring with you your own towel, toiletries and a torch. There is a communal fridge for campers' use in the bar. If you prefer, bring your own cooler box for the tents (not allowed in the bar area).

We have hot showers and clean toilets for the campers and there are braai stands...please ask for them at the bar. (The camp site ablution block is currently being renovated so please inquire about progress on this). The bar kitchen and grill is open every day from 7am to 8.30pm.

We have staff on duty 24-hours a day as a security presence, to help with washing up, and assist with making fires. For entertainment there's our friendly ‘bush bar’ and splash pool. Elephants, hippo and zebra often wander through to check our menu and keep the grass trimmed. On cool nights you can sit round the fire pit overlooking the floodplain and lake. We also have a resident dog for added security and 2 cats. Please do not bring your own pets.

As registered operators we can book you onto sunset cruises, houseboat safaris and canoe trips. To make life easy, shops and fuel are only a few kilometres away.

                  We loved the relaxed atmosfere, friendly staff. Nothing was too much, they even looked after our caravans whilst we were on a houseboat. Wayne and Louisa are really lovely people.

                  Cabins have very nice and large bathrooms. Wonderful to stay so close to the water, the staff walked the extra mile to make our stay enjoyable. The chef at the bar/restaurant is very good!

                  The setting of the bar is good and staff helpful. Ask for En-suite cabins if you stay overnight, it is an African experience! The self-catering cottage should only be used for a single family ( one bathroom) and needs attention.

                  Simple, but pleasant and clean. Thank you
