Great Kalahari

Your extraordinary journey begins at the Makgadikgadi Salt Pans—a mesmerizing, otherworldly landscape that forms a significant part of the vast Kalahari Basin. As one of the largest salt flats globally, visible even from space, this shimmering expanse is the remnant of an ancient super-lake that once covered much of Southern Africa. With endless horizons bending into the distance, the Makgadikgadi defines serene isolation. Yet, beneath its seemingly inhospitable surface lies a world teeming with life and rich cultural history, waiting to be discovered. Our exclusive 980,000-acre private concession offers unparalleled solitude, unique desert wildlife, and vistas that stretch beyond imagination. Jack’s Camp offers more space, unfathomable comfort for desert life, luxury fit for a maharaja and heaps of adventure.

Guided Safaris® By Helicopter: On an incredibly scenic flight, you’ll visit the granite Kubu island, studded with baobabs, and one of the most graphically beautiful spots in Botswana. It is rich with intriguing detail, such as walling, trade and Bushmen beads brought here to barter in pursuit of the salt that ices the surrounding Pans. This place has been the holiest secret of the Kalahari Bushmen for longer than anyone knows, a place of power and ritual. While sitting around the fire looking for shooting stars, your Private Guide points out a pair of owls calling one another as they perch on the branches in the trees dotted around.
