It's about Unique Discoveries

A vast and magical land

Tswalu Kalahari is South Africa’s largest private game reserve, covering an area of over 100,000 hectares. Owned by the Oppenheimer family, Tswalu takes conservation as its absolute priority; our vision is simply ‘to restore the Kalahari to itself’. No more than thirty guests at a time can discover the beauty of this landscape, its diverse wildlife, and the serenity of what may well be South Africa’s last great wilderness.

"Closer to the land, closer to the people."

Video: Digging Aardvark

On most African safaris, the aardvark (Orycteropus afer) is one of the rarest sightings. At Tswalu, not only is this elusive creature a regular sighting, but the opportunity is there to view some of its bizarre behaviour and put into context the ecological contribution this animal plays in its environment.
