Located amongst the rocky hills of the Palmwag Concession, Desert Rhino Camp boards travelers in a secluded area of Namibia while on African safari. Eight Meru-style canvas tents are lofted on wooden decks above the desolate terrain, and contain twin or double beds, mosquito nets, a comfortable reading chair, and writing table. Each tent also house en-suite facilities including a hand basin, flush toilet and shower. The large common areas include dining facilities, a lounge area, and bar.
Desert Rhino Camp functions as a collaborative effort between Wilderness Safaris and the Save the Rhino Trust (SRT) - an NGO that has been has been instrumental in the preservation of these rare, desert adapted black rhino. Having barely survived the slaughter of '80s and '90s throughout other parts of Africa, the black rhino population has doubled since the formation of the SRT.

The trip was terrific with great planning on your part. Most of the adventures were not mainstream and somewhat off the beaten path which made it especially enjoyable!! We felt taken care of and you all were readily available to respond to questions and issues. I would highly recommend your company and friends have already expressed interest based on our pictures and excitement.
