San Camp detail

Personifying African elegance at its best, San Camp is located in a private concession bordering the Makgadikgadi Pans and offers a complete Kalahari Desert experience. Often described as one of Africa's most romantic camps, San Camp only operates during the dry season from April to October. With its seemingly endless vistas of rolling golden grasslands and palm tree-lined horizons, San Camp's location next to the Makgadikgadi Pans National Park gives the visitor the best of both worlds: game-rich open savannah as well as dramatic, stark salt pans.

The resident guides at San Camp are very good and focus on species unique to the area such as gemsbok, brown hyena, and springbok as well as the geology, archaeology, and anthropology of the Kalahari and Makgadikgadi Pans. Explore the area on quad bikes, 4X4 game drive vehicles, or on foot where the chances are good that you'll meet meerkats along the way - these feisty fellows tend to climb on visitors to use them as lookout points.
