Nxai Pan National Park — Attraction in North-West District

Spectacular Experience at the Pan!!! This pan truly delivers a magical bush experience. The game viewing is satisfying while we didn’t spot lions this time. Hearing their powerful calls in the distance was spine-tingling. What made it unforgettable was the majestic elephant that calmly strolled past our camp to the watering hole during breakfast. Seeing such grandeur up close was a rare privilege.

Campsite Amenities: The campsite itself impressed us with its thoughtful design: flushing toilets, hot/warm showers, and plenty of shade under generous trees absolute luxuries in a setting like this. We enjoyed two peaceful nights, surrounded by nature, but with the comforts that make all the difference.

Travel Tip: Getting there is part of the adventure! The terrain is intense, so we strongly recommend taking the "sandy" route it's far less corrugated and much kinder to your vehicle’s suspension.

We got stuck also. Maybe a 100m further there was a third car that also got stuck. After some hours we got unstuck and decided to go back to the entrance gate and leave the park. We asked if it would be possible to get half of the money back, because we didn't reach the campsite and wil not be in the park the day after. This was not possible. I give 2 stars because they asked a fair amount of money for entering the park and for staying at the campsite, but the maintainence of the road is not good. It would be only fair to refund people that can't make it. The entrance prices are no joke and for that amount i expected some...

Once you're inside Nxai Pan the safari truly begins. You'll spend most of your time enjoying untamed nature at the camps and watching animals in the wild. You can choose to explore by self drive or get a game drive through the park.

The term 'Big Five' was originally coined by big-game hunters to refer to the most dangerous animals to hunt in Africa in the late 1800s.

Today, however, the Big 5 of Africa are the top animals that tourists want to see on wildlife safaris. And this is exactly what you will get...
