What the park charges on top
The rate above buys you a bed. Matusadona National Park charges its own entry fee for every day you are inside. Here is what that adds up to.
- Park entryThe trust's conservation levy for an international adult.
- $30per person, per day
- VehicleForeign-registered car or 4x4, per day.
- $5per vehicle, per day
Three nights means three days inside, so two adults sharing one vehicle pay $195 in park fees before anyone pays for a bed.
The ZimParks 2026 gazette gives $24 for an international adult, not $30. We use the trust's levy because that is what operators pass on in 2026. Confirm with reservations.matusadona@africanparks.org.
The full fee schedule for Matusadona National ParkRates at Albida Camp
Not published. No rate is published anywhere we could reach. Exclusive use with a minimum of four guests. Cooks can be arranged at extra cost.
Self-catering. You cook. Nothing else is included unless the entry says so.
Every figure on this page is in US dollars.
Indicative rates read in September 2026 from each property's own website or rate sheet, and where noted from an agent or the VisitKariba directory. Watch the basis: lodges quote per person per night, houseboats per boat per night, and several Kariba town places per room or per unit. Park fees are extra almost everywhere, at $30 per international adult per day on the trust's levy, and houseboats add their own park and lake charges.
Something this page does not answer?
This camp does not publish a rate, so the only way to a real number is to ask them or us.
This one is run by the park authority or its concessionaire, so the booking goes to them and not through anyone else. We are happy to help you work out whether it fits your route, which month suits it and what else sits near it.
Nothing on this site sits behind the form. Every figure we have is already on the page.
Questions about Albida Camp
How much does Albida Camp cost?
No rate is published anywhere we could find. Albida is let on an exclusive-use basis with a minimum of four guests, so expect to be quoted for the whole camp rather than per person. Ask the trust's reservations office for a current figure and what a cook costs extra.
What does Albida Camp include?
The camp has three East African-style canvas tents with twin beds, a double on request, each with its own bathroom. Guests share a kitchen, a gazebo dining area and a lockable store, with solar power and reverse-osmosis water. It is self-catering by default, though a cook can be arranged at extra cost.
Is Albida Camp good for families?
The trust's site was blocked when we checked, so we could not confirm a child policy for Albida; ask when you book. There is an extra ablution block for families who pitch their own tents alongside the three canvas tents, and the whole camp is taken on exclusive use, so you are not sharing with strangers.
