Tswalu Private Game Reserve
Kalahari

Accommodation
At over 100'000 hectares, Tswalu Kalahari is South Africa's largest private game reserve, so large that not even four days is enough to visit all corners of the reserve - one should never feel too crowded in the African bush.

Tswalu ensures a completely personal service, and a private guide and tracker ensure an equally bespoke Kalahari experience for families. Tswalu is situated in a malaria-free zone.

The main camp Tswalu Motse offers nine comfortable suites and is the heart and soul of Tswalu. Tswalu Tarkuni is only available on a private basis and is well suited for larger families or groups of friends. From mid-2023, Tswalu will offer a third option, the super luxurious Tswalu Loapi Tented Camp.

Somewhat hidden on the vast grounds of Tswalu, the team of Klein JAN Restaurant around Chef Jan Hendrik van der Westhuizen's awaits you. From a stay of two days, dinner in the restaurant is included - let yourself be surprised!

If you would like to spend a night under the open sky, book the Malori Sleepout. An open tent stands on a platform in the middle of the Kalahari, with comfortable beds of course, but with an open-air bathroom and a large deck where dinner is served under the stars in the evening.

Location
Tswalu Private Game Reserve is situated in the southern Kalahari, close to the border with Botswana. The flight in a comfortable PC12 takes 1.5 hours from Johannesburg and 2 hours from Cape Town. Tswalu is the ideal stopover between these two great cities.

Wildlife
The endless expanse and rugged beauty of the Kalahari region is home to rhino, giraffe, lion, aardvark, brown hyena, zebra, wildebeest, warthog, many species of antelope such as sable, eland, nyala, springbok, impala, and small animals such as the cheeky meerkat. A camera team has managed with plenty of patience to gain the confidence of a meerkat family, so much so that visitors can now walk very close to them. Tswalu is separated into two huge areas; one area houses the camp and the other is home to big cats.

Activities
Game drives with a guide / tracker team on a private vehicle. Night drives and bushwalks are available as well.

Tswalu's stables accommodate horses for all levels, so rides are available for riders of all levels. Children can also ride out. The experience of riding in the bush and getting so close to wild animals is fantastic.

You can also visit rock engravings, accompany the work of the Tswalu Foundation researchers and if you wish, you can also visit the Tswalu clinic and school.

Good to know
Also ideal for families with children of all ages. Malaria-free zone!
