On your own in the Kalahari

Bat-eared foxes, aardvarks, meerkats, remarkable birds such as nightjars and martial eagles, or well-hidden reptiles such as Cape cobras and rock monitors: with the experience and trained eye of a Khwe San tracker, your chances of a sighting are very good.

For photographers in particular, letting wildlife come to you instead of following it is an exciting experience. At Kuzikus, we have created ideal places to sit and watch or take photographs at suitable waterholes. Hidden in the shade of a fallen tree or in a purpose-built hide, you discover the surprisingly varied ways in which different wild animals respond to your presence. On request, an experienced Khwe San tracker can accompany you and help you read the signs of nature. We provide transport there and back.

Escape everyday life and enjoy a glamping adventure in the heart of the Kuzikus savannah. This exclusive experience for two people, families or friends takes you far away from civilisation.

In the early afternoon, a Land Rover takes you to a small, rustic tented camp with comfortable, well-equipped beds. Here you enjoy the vastness, solitude and silence of this unique landscape. For dinner beneath the endless starry sky, a traditional stew and a bottle of good South African wine await you by the campfire. After a leisurely morning coffee or tea, walk back through the fascinating Kalahari landscape to the farm lodge, where a hearty breakfast awaits.

As a family-run reserve, we are happy to arrange tailor-made outings for particular interests or elusive species, ideal for wildlife photographers. You head out alone with your guide in search of your perfect photographic subject.
