Camp Kalahari

The stay

A sibling of Jack’s and San Camp, Camp Kalahari is our understated and affordable camp in the heart of the great Kalahari. Set amongst the waving palms and acacia trees of Brown Hyena Island, the 12 meru-stylestyle tents are perfect for families, groups and couples, and are an ideal base for discovering the charms of the desert and the Makgadikgadi Salt Pans, a landscape that’s as surreal as it is sublime, and as mysterious as it is magical. Camp Kalahari has a well earned reputation as a camp that is perfect for a family safari in the Makgadikgadi. And if you’re looking for adventure, then look no further! We’ve got quad bike adventures, across the otherworldly salt pans, walks with the Zu’/hoasi bushmen to discover the amazing creatures that somehow manage to survive (and thrive) in this harsh environment, and our very own ‘Kalahari cool cats,' the habituated meerkat family who like nothing more than to use unsuspecting guests as lookout points. Come for a day, and you’ll be wowed by the landscape and the people; stay for a few days and you might never want to leave.
