Tswalu Kalahari Game Reserve in the Kalahari grasslands of the Northern Cape is the largest private game reserve in South Africa and the historical home of the Bushmen (San) people. This spectacular malaria-free reserve of Tswalu offers a wealth of experiences - explore Tswalu by 4x4, on horseback or on foot. Theres a sense of contentment that comes from being surrounded by so much space, the colours and textures, the myriad sounds and vast silences of the wilderness. You're sharing the environment with springbok, buffalo, lion, kudu, Bat-eared fox, hyena, meerkat and aardwolf. (Wildebeest, cheetah, the majestic Roan and Sable Antelope can also be seen.)
Bush walks focus on the local vegetation, bush medicines, cosmetics and hunting skills of the San people, whilst sundowners on the lantern-lit dunes or bush dining at Lekgaba Lookout completes the experience. Other activities include star-gazing, visiting rock paintings, Moffat Mission and the Kuruman eye or focusing on the wild colonies of Meerkats.
Motse lodge offers eight luxuriously appointed 'legae' (suites) including two family suites. The curved stone and sand walls are enclosed by thatched roof, providing shade and sculptural beauty. Each overlooks a waterhole and has a private lounge, open fireplace, private sun deck, outside shower, telephone and minibar.
Tarkuni lodge is set powerfully amid two rolling mountain ranges and is available to parties up to eight people in total privacy. Tarkuni is remote and sensational, enjoying all that Tswalu has to offer. Explore Tswalu with your personal ranger and tracker by Land Rover, horseback or foot. |
