Nxai Pan Camp sits within Nxai Pan National Park, a smaller, less-visited park immediately north of the Makgadikgadi Pans, known for its ancient baobab groves and a seasonal zebra migration that draws significant predator activity.
Canvas tents with private decks set among the park’s characteristic mopane and baobab woodland, comfortably furnished in a classic safari style.
Botswanan and international dishes served communally, with the camp’s small scale keeping the atmosphere genuinely personal.
Game drives across the pan and surrounding grassland, with visits to the park’s famous Baines’ Baobabs grove.
Nxai Pan hosts a significant seasonal zebra migration during the rains, drawing lion and cheetah, alongside a resident population of gemsbok and springbok.
The Baines’ Baobabs grove, painted by explorer Thomas Baines in the 1860s, remains virtually unchanged and offers a striking, historically resonant landscape subject.
The camp supports Nxai Pan National Park’s ranger capacity in a park that receives far fewer visitors than its more famous neighbours.
