Jackalberry Tented Camp

Wonderfully comfortable and lovely luxury tented accommodation in the Caprivi *****. Staff gave very good service! It is very dry following the drought so don't expect water views or loads of game. Our boat trip was an absolute highlight. Don't expect gourmet meals - this is in the middle of the bush and logistics must be a nightmare. Thanks to Sabrina, Westie, Chef, Owen and Collins for your friendly professionalism. A great stay!

The nature did not disappoint despite it being the dry season. The guides, Westie and Derek did an excellent job. In general it must be said that the staff were very friendly. HOWEVER, the lodge experience was certainly not what we expected, especially given their reputation and the cost. The food offered was absolutely mediocre. We had much better food in much cheaper options like Halali Camp in Etosha which is not a private sector operation! All credit to the poor chef who tried to present something attractive. However, there is no excuse for stale bread sticks, stale muesli, etc. The first evening’s beef stew was inedible, so tough! Our last evening saw the worst sirloin steak I have ever been served??? Our sleeping quarters could not be locked from the inside.???Those of our companions could not be locked from the outside??? Local management apologised that service, etc might not be up to usual standard as we were staying over the weekend and half the staff were away?? Our trip included more than ten lodges. The Jackalberry experience was the second worst, only beaten by Ngepi Lodge😩😩

We loved the place and the tents from the first sight and the wonderful staff made us a memorable stay. The boatscruise on the Linyanti was outstanding. Thank you to the Team of Jackalberry Tented Camp

Beautiful and charming place, unique in its design! Immersed in an unparalleled environment. I just have lovely things to say, the staff was very professional and friendly, the food was good and abundant, the kindness of Simone was 20/10, always ready to help and make you feel at home. We dream to be back soon.

Want to be close to nature? Not afraid to drive a challenging (4x4 ) road? Perhaps this tented lodge is up your alley. It definitely is in the middels of nowhere in between Namibia and Botswana. Only four tented lodges gives you the feeling of having the place to yourself. Sweet people, nice food however it lacked finesse and felt clumsy occasionally. The entire spot deserves an update.

This is a very intimate, low-key camp that will give you a truly African Safari experience. With only 4 tents and situated far from any other human activity it is a true gem. The camp is run on solar energy so do not expect air-conditioning and hair dryers here. The tents have everything you need: lovely, comfy beds, coffee/tea station and open-plan bathroom. The food is good and plentiful. We loved hearing the sounds of the bush at night and seeing all the warthogs wander through camp. Robson, Sabrina, Trayphina, Simone and all the staff made our stay very memorable. Thank you!
