Your base camp on the edge of the Makgadikgadi!

Zoroga Expedition Camp sits between the villages of Nata and Gweta, right on the doorstep of one of the most extraordinary landscapes on earth. This is where the Makgadikgadi begins to reveal itself, and where your adventure into the pans starts in earnest.

Inspired by the Basarwa people who have called this landscape home for thousands of years, the camp is built around simplicity, character and a genuine connection to the land around it. The accommodation is rustic and real, the atmosphere is warm and unhurried, and the setting, with vast open skies and the pan stretching away to the horizon, does all the work that no amount of design could replicate.

It's the kind of place that gets under your skin quickly. A campfire in the evening, a sky packed with stars, the silence of the Makgadikgadi settling around you as the day cools. This is Botswana before the crowds, before the queues, before anyone else arrives.

Bushman-inspired, beautifully remote and perfectly positioned for self-drivers, overlanders and wellness retreat guests who want the real Botswana rather than a polished version of it, Zoroga is where the Nxai Stay story begins.
