The detail

Tswalu Kalahari is known as South Africa's largest private game reserve with over 110 000 hectares of traversing land. Tswalu offers extraordinary privacy in which to explore a rare and vast wilderness and is the perfect combination with other South African destinations like Cape Town and the Kruger National Park. Safari.com boasts an incredible tour that combines these three destinations perfectly - 11 Day Cape Town, Tswalu & Kruger

Tswalu Motse - The Motse is a luxury camp with 9 private guest legae (Tswala for ‘home’) set at the foot of the Korannaberg Mountains with sweeping views of the Kalahari. Three of the legae have been designed specifically for families, with 2 separate bedrooms, each with an en-suite bathroom, connecting to a luxurious separate living room.

The main house features elevated decks, elegant lounges, an infinity pool, a secluded spa, mezzanine library, satellite TV and an endless view over the savannahs.

Tswalu Tarkuni - Set amid two rolling mountain ranges, Tarkuni is an oasis of serenity with beguiling views on every side. The private homestead offers five luxurious en-suite bedrooms for the exclusive use of a multigenerational family of a party of friends, each with its own private deck and star bed and boasts a vast open-plan lounge and dining room, an intimate mezzanine library, and a spa therapy suite. A covered deck leads to a private tsala and swimming pool.

The homestead has its own dedicated team including a host and private chef to ensure meticulous and completely personal service. A private vehicle, personal field guide, and tracker complete this bespoke safari experience.

Tswalu Loapi - Suspended between earth and sky, Loapi evokes the carefree, nomadic spirit of camping and a return to a true wildernessexperience. Resting lightly on the land are six tented safari homes (four x 1 bedroom and two x 2 bedrooms), each a private,contemporary micro camp inviting deep engagement with the southern Kalahari in all its unfettered, changeable beauty.

This Travel Firm is Ready for You!
We have completed the preliminary reservations with this amazing travel firm. Thank God they exist! We would never have been able to figure out how to put the pieces of our trip to AFRICA together without them. They are patient, caring, detailed, and responsive to communications…something you expect, but do not always receive when service is involved. Connect with them via email if you are even thinking about going to Africa. Cheers!

First time to Cape Town
We are a group of ten friends traveling together to Cape Town for the first time. Safari.com was our top choice for travel agents. Leché and Tracy were incredibly helpful and prompt with our questions and bookings. The trip to Sanbona Wildlife Reserve was fantastic, and everything went off without a hitch. We highly recommend Safari.com for your safari plans!

Fadiel was very prompt in responding to my emails. Despite a double booking for our Safari - not his fault - everything worked out well in the end.
