Jack's Camp - The Kalahari legend

One of the most iconic and exciting camps in Africa, Jack’s Camp offers unfathomable comfort for desert life, luxury fit for a maharaja and a world of desert adventure. Paying homage to the property’s enduring and much-loved 1940s campaign style, the guest tents iconic interiors are embellished with rich textiles from around the world, Natural History Museum cabinets, and an overhead bed cooling system. Ensuite bathrooms have both indoor and outdoor showers and outside, each veranda has a private plunge pool with magnificent view over the Kalahari Desert.

The large mess tent is resplendent with the renowned Natural History Museum, library, antique pool table and a well- stocked drinks chest and there is also the nomadic Persian tea tent and pool pavilion for guests to experience.

Sitting in a striking spot on the edge of Botswana’s Makgadikgadi Pans, gazing over glittering salt pans and shimmering expanses of sun-scorched earth, Jack’s Camp is an oasis of style and old-world glamour in a landscape of savage beauty. Here the safari experience is unique. From interacting with the habituated meerkats, going on guided walks or game drives, quad biking out into the remnants of the super lake, hunting for stone tools in the crusty salt flats or seeing the world through the eyes of the San Bushmen - this is where unreal style, meets real adventure – and it will leave you awestruck!

Why You’ll Love Jack’s Camp
 Enjoy the ultimate in space and exclusivity; the camp is one of just three in a one million-acre private wildlife reserve. 
 There’s an impressive choice of extraordinary activities to be enjoyed including quad biking, bushman walks, classic desert game drives, meerkat visits and horse rides. After an early morning desert exploration, retreat back to the sanctuary of camp to sit back and relax in the elegant Persian tea tent.
 The camp has one of the most comprehensive collections of ancient artefacts in Botswana, collected and curated by the Bousfield family over decades. 
 Indulge in a lazy afternoon in your private plunge pool overlooking the Makgadikgadi Pans, watching the world go by. 
 Keep your eyes peeled for the year-round desert wildlife: brown hyena, oryx, Kalahari lion and, after dark, aardvark, porcupine, honey badger and bat eared fox.
 Home to Africa’s second largest zebra migration, with ‘Green Season’ attracting vast breeding colonies of flamingos turning the pans into a sea of pink.
