Please note, offline app functionality is not supported by all devices.

You will receive a WhatsApp (or an email) with an access code for entry at the main gate of the reserve the day before you arrive. There is limited cell reception at the main gate so you might not be able to retrieve emails at the entrance – please have the access code ready. Please make sure you know the number of the tent you are staying in (you will receive an email with your tent number) and follow the map to your accommodation. Please check in at reception between 14h00 & 17h00.

Food

Please remember that all AfriCamps locations are self-catering. If you are not ordering our meal baskets, please make sure you pack your meals, and everything needed to cook them. We provide salt and pepper, but any other spices, sauces and cooking oil must be packed.

Firewood

Firewood is for sale at all our camps, but you are welcome to bring your own.

Swimming towels

AfriCamps provides bath towels, but guests are asked to please bring their own swimming towels for the dam and swimming pool.

Cooler box

Each tent has a bar fridge that should suffice for a weekend. If you are a full tent or you are staying for longer than a weekend, it is advised to bring an extra cooler box to store your food and drinks, especially in the warmer months.
