Tarkuni

Tarkuni is an exclusive-use private home set between two mountain ranges in the Tswalu Game Reserve.

Recently redesigned to uncompromising standards of comfort and elegance, Tarkuni is an excellent choice for families or groups of friends. Its five luxurious suites, each with a magnificent en suite bathroom, accommodate a maximum of 10 guests.

Tarkuni creates a home from home, and has its own dedicated team including a host and private chef to ensure a completely personal service. A private vehicle, personal field guide and tracker ensure an equally bespoke safari experience.

Tswalu offers unrivalled privacy in a vast, pristine wilderness. There is a maximum of six vehicles in over 100,000 hectares. The expert field guides have been specially trained in Kalahari wildlife and each contributes personally to the constant programme of research and conservation on the reserve. Game drives at Tswalu are completely tailored to guests' interests. As well as discovering many rare and endangered species for the first time, every guest leaves with a deep appreciation of the beauty of this entire eco-system.

Bush walks are a highlight at Tswalu and a morning can begin by walking to a Meerkat colony to watch these engaging mammals warm themselves in the sunshine before they scamper off to forage. Night walks are now also possible, offering the chance of exceptional sightings such as aardvark, aardwolf, porcupine or brown hyena at close range. For a Kalahari safari experience unlike any other, guests can also explore the dunes and savannahs on Tswalu's Horseback Safaris.
