Jack’s Camp

Jack’s Camp is located deep in the Kalahari Desert on the edge of the Makgadikgadi Pans, the largest saltpans in the world. Jack’s Camp is a classic desert safari camp with large walk-in tents and comfortable accommodation.
Plains game is abundant, with herds of Wildebeest, Zebra and Springbok - with the accompanying predators - on the open grasslands. The camp offers many activities such as quad biking, walking and game drives in custom made 4 wheel drive vehicles.
