7 Day Central Kalahari Safari

Bush Ways Safaris operates three types of mobile safaris experience: Adventure Camping, Premium Camping and Accommodated (lodge to lodge).

For the Adventure Camping safaris, guests are only required to pitch and fold their own tent. All cooking, cleaning and any other camp chores are taken care of by the Bush Ways Safari team, made up of an experienced local safari guide and a camp assistant. We provide 2.1m x 2.1m x 1.75m dome tents and a comfortable 5cm high density foam mattress. We mostly camp in areas with no formal ablutions, and therefore build our own bush toilet and shower when camping in these areas.

Guests travel in a Bush Ways custom-built safari vehicle. All Bush Ways safari vehicles are specially designed to offer optimum comfort and maximize game viewing and photographic opportunities for the guests. Each vehicle has been designed to seat 16 guests but takes a maximum of 12 during Adventure Camping Safaris, which ensures excellent game viewing and mobility.

Piper Pans is in the north-west of the Central Kalahari Game Reserve, and has only two campsites, ensuring a very private game viewing experience. Like all campsites in the Central Kalahari there are pit toilets and bucket showers - no water, you must be completely self-sufficient.

The Central Kalahari Game Reserve is one of the world’s largest, at nearly 53,000km2. The feeling of space and sheer freedom is magical – a true wilderness experience. Animals such as gemsbok, hartebeest and springbok are common, and predators are frequently seen.
