Overview

Jack’s Camp is one of Africa’s most iconic camps, an oasis of style and comfort in the middle of Botswana’s Kalahari Desert. A beautiful authentic, 1940’s style tented safari camp that has been completely rebuilt and will reopen in late 2020, refreshed and reinvigorated, yet still retaining the classic style we all know and love.

Situated in the heart of the Makgadikgadi Salt Pans, Jack’s Camp is truly like nowhere else on earth. Spectacular vistas, creative surprises, expert guiding, incredibly friendly habituated meerkats, unique desert wildlife, old-world safari styling, and superb cuisine all come together to create an experience that is completely different from any other.

Activities are varied and combine wildlife with culture, history, archaeology, and geology.

The brand-new Jack’s Camp will pay homage to the property’s enduring and much-loved 1940s campaign style. The new, larger mess tent will be resplendent with the renowned Natural History Museum, library, antique pool table and a well-stocked drinks chest. Framed Peter Beard pictures sit alongside original posters from French taxidermist Deyrolle, both complemented by Bousfield family photos. The camp has one of the most comprehensive collections of ancient artefacts in Botswana, collected and curated by the Bousfield family over decades. The swimming pool pavilion will still be the only one of its kind in Africa and will include a new spa tent. The iconic nomadic Persian tea tent will be made larger and the shop will be renovated and restocked with new treasures. There will be 24-hour electricity in the tents (100% solar powered) Enjoy the ultimate in space and exclusivity; the camp is one of just three in a one million-acre private wildlife reserve.
