In the wet season, this vast area of salt pans interspersed with low-lying grass islands is the destination of herds of migrating zebra. It has an unspoilt beauty unlike any other part of Africa. Situated on Hyena Island, Makgadikgadi is a real bush camp offering the very essence of Africa. Accommodation is in comfortable twin-bedded cottage tents secluded among palms and acacias.
All tents have en-suite bathrooms and there is a dip pool for refuge from the midday heat.
The traditionally built mess, with its thatched roof and open fireplace, provides the perfect ambience for relaxation at the end of the day. Around the flickering fire the day's events are recounted, whilst your host conjures up the spirit of Africa. Legends of the bush gently unfold, punctuated by calls of the wild from the surrounding Makgadikgadi Pans. An early breakfast precedes your day's exploration of the pans. In the evening, after aperitifs, your hosts invite you to join them at an elegant table for a three course dinner, combining international cuisine with the best of African fare and accompanied by elegant wines from South Africa.
