Onguma Tented Camp

Etosha National Park is one of the most unique safari destinations in Africa with a massive salt pan that covers almost a quarter of the park. Waterholes in the park are often frequented by wildlife large and small and hopefully you will have plenty of animal sightings during your safaris in the park. Your stay is at Onguma Tented Camp situated on a private game reserve near Etosha.

In the local Herero language, Onguma means, "the place you don't want to leave." With a stunning main building and seven tents providing private, exclusive accommodation, Onguma Tented Camp, certainly lives up to its name.

An atmosphere of elegant dining prevails, complimented by the daily activities taking place around the watering hole, approximately 60 meters away. The surrounding nature lends itself to long lazy afternoons, spent relaxing on the sofas in the lounge, watching the animals go. And when things heat up, all that is required is a gentle stroll to the rim flow pool. Sit and relax in the flowing waters while enjoying an ice cold cooler. Alternatively if more strenuous activity is required, then relaxing on your patio and reading a good book should provide you with all the exercise you may need.

Each luxury tent comes equipped with an indoor and outdoor shower, bath, separate toilet and views look over the waterhole. Oh and did we mention a desk area for those who like to travel while they work!
