Communication at our Camps

Communicating from camps

Makuleke Camp
There is no cellphone reception at the Makuleke Camp. The closest reception is 16kms away and a weekly trip will be made to allow learners to phone. Please ensure that you have enough air time as there is no access to shops selling air time.

Contact with your family/friends via the camp’s satellite phone – this is limited to emergency calls only from your family and this would go via head office first who would contact the camp on behalf of the family. The office number is: +27 (0)13 752 4791.

Karongwe & Selati Camps
There is limited cellphone reception at the camps and there is no access to venues providing airtime. We do not encourage use of cell phones at the camps at all as it is an intrusion for others wanting to enjoy the peace and quiet of the bush. There are charging facilities at the camp, please bring your own adaptors. Contact with your family/friends for emergency purposes only would be made via cellphone or radio from the head office to the camp manager.
