What makes Kapula special isn't the view, it's our team. We love this recent review from our guests:

"A fantastic experience! Nice and comfy tents, very well maintained by a most charming Mr Taurai, camp manager. Very nice main lounge tent with all animals right in front of you, this combined with a stunning sunrise. One of the highlights of our Zimbabwe trip! Thank you Taurai!!"

The Hwange sky never uses the same palette twice. πŸŒ…βœ¨ There is no better way to end a day in the bush than with a sundowner in hand and the sounds of the vlei settling for the night. Whether you are at North Camp or the new Jackalberry, our decks offer the ultimate front-row seat to the best show in Zimbabwe.

The ultimate Hwange base for the whole family. πŸ˜πŸ‘¨β€πŸ‘©β€πŸ‘§β€πŸ‘¦

Finding a safari spot that works for toddlers, parents, and grandparents can be a challenge, but The Platform was designed for exactly that. It offers the perfect blend of wild immersion and essential "piece of mind."

Why families (and grandparents!) love it:
✨ Fenced Ground Area: A secure space for the little ones to play, giving parents a chance to relax.
✨ The Iconic Platform Bed: Sleep upstairs under the stars (or canvas) overlooking the waterhole for a true bush experience.
✨ The Ground-Level Tent: Tucked safely underneath the platform, these two singles are perfect for older kids or siblings.
✨ The Grandparent Sanctuary: A separate, private tent with its own en-suite bathroom ensures everyone has their own space to retreat to.

Whether you are sharing a sunset on the deck or a sunrise coffee while the kids watch the elephants, The Platform is where multi-generational memories are made.
