Camp Kalahari
(Makgadikgadi and Central Kalahari - Botswana)
General Description
Uncharted Africa’s camps have a completely unique feeling of style and quality. There is a strong sense of individuality but the camp is always sensitive to the environment and local community issues. The camp is run by Ralph Bousfield, son of well known Jack Bousfield, who comes from a long line of African pioneers and adventurers!
Camp Kalahari is a return to the traditional safari style of the old explorers, and is the best way to experience the Makgadikgadi in a fresh and affordable way. It is the ideal camp for those who want fun, comfort, style and adventure and is nestled amongst the acacias and Mokolwane palms of Hyaena Island and on the edge of the ancient super lake, adjacent to the Makgadikgadi National Park.
Camp Kalahari is the ideal camp to experience the Kalahari and Makgadigadi.

Activities
A real highlight of Camp Kalahari is a visit to their resident family of meerkats. Spending a morning with meeekats is completely amazing; they're incredibly cute and very inquisitive. The meerkats dig up scorpions and pounce on beetles while your guide maintains a running commentary on their social habits and survival strategies
