An original style safari camp harking back to the days of explorers, Camp Kalahari is on Hyena Island on the edge of Makgadikgadi Pans National Park.  The camp is set amongst palm trees, overlooking the seemingly endless salt pans. This is an ideal base if you're looking for comfort and fun with adventure thrown in! There is a large lounge, library and dining area and 10 'meru' style tented rooms including one family unit with 2 bedrooms. All have en-suite bathrooms with outdoor showers and hot water.

There are two seasons in this region, the wet season from November to mid-April then dry until the end of October. In the wet season, water and flamingos fill the pans and flowers bloom across the plains, animal action is busy with plenty of lions and cheetahs chasing their prey. The highlight of this season is the largest migration in southern Africa where 30,000 animals, mainly zebra, migrate across the pans. In the dry season, the waters disappear and the desert animals are easily seen.

From the camp, you can enjoy game viewing around Makgadikgadi Pans and Central Kalahari regions with a variety of desert-adapted species. A highlight of this camp is bush walks with the San Bushmen, full of ancient knowledge that has been passed down generations. You can also get up close to the deserts most endearing of animals, the meerkats. Take a walk at dawn and find them emerging from their burrows, seemingly oblivious to you. They have been known to climb over people as they go about their foraging, a gorgeous experience!
