The stay

Onguma Tented Camp is a beguiling mixture of sophistication and relaxation, of elegance and the earth. It is this intriguing combination and attention to detail that makes Onguma Tented Camp, the ultimate in safari chic. In the local Herero language, Onguma means, "the place you don't want to leave." With a stunning main building and seven tents providing private, exclusive accommodation, Onguma Tented Camp, certainly lives up to its name.

At Onguma Tented Camp the days unfold between the quiet comfort of canvas and the measured rhythm of the bush. Each tent opens onto a waterhole that draws game throughout the day, while in and outdoor showers, deep baths and a wood fired tub offer quiet refreshment after game drives. The pool and shaded lounge areas provide space to rest, and the main building draws guests together for meals and conversation without disturbing the sense of seclusion.

In a tailor made safari this camp becomes the private base from which to explore the surrounding reserve. Morning and evening drives depart directly from the property, and the single Luxury Tent offers the space and privacy needed after long days in the vehicle. The absence of set meal plans allows the schedule to flex around sightings and light, keeping the focus on the wildlife rather than on fixed routines.
