New Camp for Footsteps in Africa
Footsteps in Africa is delighted to inform the trade that we have just obtained a new camp for which we will perform sales, marketing and reservations. This is the first in a series of new camps and lodges that will be joining the circuit in the course of the next two years. The expansion is part of our long term goal to be the largest circuit of value for money Camps and Lodge in Botswana. The very first of these new camps and lodges is Kalahari Desert Camp.
Bordering Central Kalahari Game Reserve (CKGR), on 15,000 hectares of private concession and serviced by a private airstrip, is Kalahari Desert Camp, Kalahari Desert Camp is a small, intimate camp catering for just 12 guests, offering privacy and an exclusive experience of this wonderful landscape. A well-appointed dining area, lounge, swimming pool and viewing deck overlook a productive water-hole. Accommodation is in 6 large Meru Tents, elevated on platforms. Each tent is tastefully furnished with either twin or double bed configurations, en-suite bathrooms; al freso showers, and relaxation areas.
At Kalahari Desert Camp we are able to offer a full spectrum of activities – day drives, night drives and bush walks with guide and tracker. Due to the proximity to the entrance gate of the CKGR we are also able to offer both full day trips into the CKGR as well as overnight camping trips too, literally the best of both worlds – an exclusive reserve combined with the magic of the CKGR.
No Bushman activities will be on offer as we believe we would not be able to do justice to their culture when compared to Grasslands Bushman Lodge, which offers without a doubt offer the most authentic and comprehensive Bushman experience we know of. Combining these properties is quite possible, and recommended to anyone looking for an in-depth experience of the fascinating world of the Kalahari.
