Among the most captivating and exciting activities from Camp Kalahari or Great Tsau Hills is the enticing Bushman’s Walk’ in the Kalahari landscape conducted by the San themselves. One of the most unique aspects of this morning experience is the click language that the San use to communicate. Guests can share and understand the San people’s rich history and culture with dramatic illustrations. The walk is awe-inspiring and humbling as you walk along pathways home to wild animals. It is an ideal setting to absorb the beauty of nature, while the guides’ interpretative skills offer insight into a new and fascinating world.
