    Have you been to Mana Pools? If yes, please tell us what you thought of it. If not, will you be going now?

    Well done William. Yes, I have been to Mana Pools. As a matter of fact it was the first park that my wife and I visited while on our maiden safari in 2004. Most memorable was spending two days canoeing on the Zambezi with the pods of hippos nearby, a den of baby spotted hyenas, a few enormous male lions. And the herds of elephants and cape buffalo. Zimbabwe is such an amazing place, extremely rich in wildlife.

    I was there 7 years ago. We spent a week camping in different spots along Zambezi river. What an amazing experience it was. One of my biggest dreams is to come back there one day.

    We were in Mana Pools this March. Cloud was actually our guide- it was lovely to see him in the video. It's a very special place. We stayed at Zambezi Expeditions. Not fancy- but really up close and personal with the wildlife. Had hippos grazing outside our tent, eles wandering through camp, AMAZING!

    Wauw, that must be Miraculous to be there. I find it very beautiful qua fauna, but that's thanks to the climate. Let's hope the climate stays there as it is. this is a wonderful safari, I am going to inform myself better about the possibility for older people because AFRICA IS IN MY HEART SINCE I WAS EIGHT. MANA POOLS IS ALSO HEAVEN ON EARTH. THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THIS PRECIOUS MOVIE🌷🌱🌳🍀♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

    Great video, you really captured the magic of Mana Pools! Been there twice and it really is an exceptional experience. To get so, so close to those huge bull elephants on foot is an experience like none other. We once had the one they call Tusker touch the tip of our canoe with his trunk and on that same trip had Boswell walk right up to us as we sat on a big log. Not to mention getting to walk with wild dogs and lions…..it’s truly a next level trip.

    Hi William, wonderful video and as every comment so far it's impossible to pick any favourite clip. I was with you a few weeks ago on a amazing trip to the Chobe, Okavango Delta and Kalahari .In a couple of weeks I shall be Pangolin again, this time in the Serengeti, not sure yet who will be the host but I did throughly appreciate your help and encouragement coming away with thousands of images which I'm still sorting. I must say your video is very tempting to book this trip. Very Best Wishes for the New Year to you and all at Pangolin. Bruce Gardner

      Hi Bruce! So good to hear from you. You will be with Janine, Guts and myself (which I'm so excited about). Looking forward to an amazing trip with you. Mana Pools in 2025 sounds fun 😉

    Great video and photography; love the low angles, and loved the B&W shot of the elephant reaching high up for leaves. You guys have trips there? But it did not look like there are places to stay, except for very basic ones.

    sorry for my bad English !!!! thanks a lot for your answer.

    Why are there collars on all the male elephants?

      They conduct research on their movements...especially the larger males with big tusks.
