Salt pans, meerkats and, in the rains, thousands of zebra on the move, from a legendary camp among the palms.
The Makgadikgadi feels like another planet. By day you sit among a colony of habituated meerkats, walk with Zu/’hoasi guides who read the land as others read a book, and follow the zebra migration across green grassland.
Nights at Jack’s Camp are pure romance, with Persian rugs under canvas, candlelight and a sky so clear you will want to stay up late.
