Tswalu Kalahari Reserve is a privately owned game reserve nestled on a spacious area in Northern Cape, South Africa. Because of the large space, the true luxury of this reserve is the silence and peace that surrounds it.
The lodges are built from organic materials and outfitted to the highest standards, they manifest the warmth and hospitality of the people of the Kalahari. Designed and sited to make the best of Tswalu’s dramatic and expansive views, The Motse and Tarkuni lodge provide exclusivity, privacy, and unfettered access to one of southern Africa’s last true wildernesses.




There are nine suites and a private homestead with 5 suites. Within the reserve there is an authentic restaurant serving authentic South African food, a wine cellar with delicious wines, spa treatments in an outdoor spa or a private deck, gym with savanna view and available yoga classes. There is a possibility of experiencing the star gazing, sleeping under the night sky, enjoying bush dinners, sundowners, wine tastings and dune picnics.
Definitely one of the most exciting things about this reserve is its wildlife. The possibility to experience safari and see majestic, wild animals such as lions, rhinos, zebras and many other rare and endangered species. With a private tour safari guide there is so much that guests can learn about the inhabitants, culture, art, traditions and wildlife that surrounds this part of Africa.
