Peeking out from between the Kgalagadi's well-loved red sand dunes is Grootkolk. This innovative and comfortable accommodation offers guests the opportunity to bask in the Kalahari atmosphere overlooking a waterhole. It is only 20km from Unions End which is where South Africa, Botswana, and Namibia meet. It is a 2-hour drive from Nossob, and no 4x4 is required
There are only 4 Desert Cabins at Grootkolk which are built with sand bags and canvas offering a different and exciting experience. Guests are to supply their own charcoal or firewood and water.
The camp is not fenced and there is a Camp Attendant on duty at all times (generally no other staff). (consider taking some cooldrink etc for the camp attendant, they are far from home.)
There are limited driving opportunities around this camp. This camp is a haven of peace and quiet, allowing you to sit back and watch game coming and going to the waterhole. The waterhole is floodlit, this is a wonderful opportunity to see nocturnal animals.
There are NO convenience facilities at this camp such as fuel, or shop

Botswana Experience
Anja, our agent, was very kind and helpful all the time to organize the perfect trip. She did it quickly and efficiently. The amount of days we spent in every place was perfect to really enjoy the hotels and the different activities they proposed (in general the hotels are very nice but we don’t have the time to really experience the place but here we did). Also the selections of hotels was very very nice. Nice infrastructure, excellent service (very professional) and outstanding places to visit (all the parks were great). We had a wonderful experience with the company in Botswana.

Keith was extremely helpful during the booking process. He is the only reason I continued the booking process with your firm. There were issues with your website among other things that had me feeling uncomfortable. Keith has great energy which eased my concerns. I feel the package Keith put together is great and I expect to have a wonderful trip.
