Jack’s Camp, located in the vast Makgadikgadi Salt Pans, is an iconic safari camp offering a unique and luxurious experience in one of Africa’s most otherworldly landscapes. Established in the 1960s, the camp is steeped in history and blends vintage safari charm with modern elegance.
The camp features ten tents styled in a 1940s safari aesthetic, complete with Persian rugs, antique furniture, and four-poster beds. Each tent includes an en-suite bathroom with indoor and outdoor showers and a private veranda overlooking the stark, breathtaking expanse of the pans. The camp’s central area is equally stunning, housing a grand mess tent with a museum, library, and bar. The swimming pool pavilion provides a cool retreat from the desert heat.
Jack’s Camp offers activities that capitalize on its unique location. Guided walks with the San Bushmen provide insights into their culture while game drives and quad biking excursions across the salt pans reveal the area’s raw beauty and wildlife, including brown hyenas, aardwolves, and migratory zebra herds. Seasonal birdwatching and meerkat encounters are also highlights.
With its exceptional setting, unmatched hospitality, and attention to detail, Jack’s Camp provides a safari experience like no other.
