Tau Pan is the first safari camp to be built in the Central Kalahari Game Reserve and is completely solar-powered. The camp is situated on an established sand ridge overlooking the Tau Pan waterhole and the endless Kalahari horizon.
Tau Pan features 9 beautifully designed thatched units built on raised decks. Each unit includes an en-suite bathroom with an outdoor shower, a lounge area, a fan, an in-room safe, and a verandah offering views of the expansive pan. The family unit has the added convenience of an additional twin bedroom.
The camp's facilities include a swimming pool, open bar, lounge, and dining areas, all arranged around a cozy fireplace.
Activities at Tau Pan include game drives, day trips to well-known locations such as Deception Valley, Sunday, Piper, and Passarge Pans. Guests can also enjoy stargazing, bush brunches on Tau Pan, and guided nature walks with Bushman trackers.
Walking through Africa's wild areas is one of the most rewarding ways to connect with the natural environment. While game drives allow for more extensive animal sightings and closer observations from a safe distance, walking on foot offers a humbling and awe-inspiring perspective. It brings a new appreciation for the smaller details of the ecosystem—plants, insects, tracks, and signs—that are often overlooked from a vehicle. The interpretative skills of your guide will immerse you in a fascinating new world.
The Central Kalahari Game Reserve hosts a wealth of wildlife, including giraffes, elephants, white rhinos, Cape buffalo, hyenas, honey badgers, meerkats, yellow mongooses, warthogs, cheetahs, oryx, desert-adapted springbok, jackals, Red-crested Korhaan, and herds of wildebeest.
Tau Pan Camp is the perfect destination for solo adventurers, couples, and families seeking an authentic safari experience.

Leigh-Ann Croeser from Safari.com was fantastic
Leigh-Ann from Safari.com was great to work with to plan our group safari trip. She was able to get me on the priority waitlist for a lodge that I liked, which ended up working out for our group during my preferred dates. Leigh-Ann was responsive and provided various tour recommendations for us to decide on the best option for us. There were a few email and name typos from Leigh-Ann that I had to correct, but other than that, I had a great experience.

Dolan was terrific
Dolan was terrific. He got back to us immediately to answer all of our questions. And was so nice to hold a room for a couple of days because of my moms passing. It gave us time to finalize her arrangements and time to book our trip. I would highly recommend using him to book your trip!!
