The days are long in summer
They stretch lazily from sunrise, and
we spent most of our mornings at
the incomparable rock pool unique
to Karoo 1. With cool waters, sun
loungers, and epic scenery, it’s not
hard to while away the time. And
when the kids needed movement,
we met up with Chris, the king of
adventure. From quad biking and
Segways to archery and pellet gun
target shooting, there is a lot to do.

And, as the games room is filled
with Foosball, ping pong, and a pool
table, you may not see your kids at
all. You can also hike through the
rugged shrublands, lunch at the
on-site restaurant and delightful
bistro – where the lovely bartender
Shakes is adept at cocktail making
– or drink coffee at the on-site
Bootleggers, which is close to the
hotel pool, available to glampers. In
the evenings, there are stargazing
chats, a boma for chill-out time and
outdoor cinema, weather permitting.

What makes AfriCamps at Karoo 1
the ultimate family destination is
that it’s completely dog friendly. The
whole family truly means everyone
– no more sad eyes in the rearview
mirror as you drive away from home.
