Camp Kalahari

Camp Kalahari is a place as rare as hen’s teeth – in these parts of Botswana, it is one of just three camps in a one-million-acre private wildlife reserve and contains just 12 Merustyle tents. Set among the palm trees and bordering the Makgadikgadi Pan salt flat, the Camp pairs original African furniture and textiles with colonial antiques, and contains a multitude of activities to choose from, including quad biking and horseback riding across the expansive Martian-style landscapes. If you’re sticking around the camp, enjoy a lazy siesta in the swimming pool, where if you’re lucky, you might find an elephant taking a sip – after all, who says you need to go on a safari to truly experience Africa?
