Twee Rivieren Rest Camp @ Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park

It was never our intention to include a visit to Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park (KTP), but then it was. We didn’t know one had to book a year in advance, so very lucky to get 2 nights’ accommodation in a family cottage at Twee Rivieren a few months before. The accommodation was clean & had all the necessities for self-catering. There is a shop on the premises with basic food items to have a braai, a restaurant which opens quite late morning if you are planning on having breakfast before going out for a game drive. Food at restaurant was okay for a quick meal. The big plus factor is the KTP entry/exit gate being on the premises and also a garage to fill up with petrol & adjusting tyre pressure for driving in the park & leaving. We also took advantage of an evening game drive from this camp, and got to see beautiful owls & nocturnal animals. For first time visitors it was a lovely introduction to this game park, and also have plenty of areas to explore. A very different landscape to other South African game parks, but loved the red sand dunes, flat & stark landscape and beautiful Gemsbok. Really worth a visit & revisit.

A very disappointing experience. The room smelt pretty awful, luckily we only booked 1 night. At night it rained and the water leaked onto one of the single bed.ls. We had to sleep so uncomfortably on 1 bed. When reporting it to reception, she just shrugged her shoulders and said sorry about that!

Clean, friendly, everything works...wonderful 3-night camping...an excellent experience. Staff are helpful and knowlegable. The shop is well equipped for any last minute requirement. We ordered fresh bread (potbrood) from the restaurant. Highly recommended. Thank you for an unforgettable stay. We will be back.

This is by far the cleanest, most well run and friendliest SANPARKS camp we have visited in South African. We have stayed here twice for over a week at a time and had a very enjoyable wilderness experience. Thank you and keep up the good work.

Like all the reviews, this place is well organized and the landing point into the Kgalagadi for most. Great to unwind after the long road there. Friendly staff. Great chalets. Wi-Fi can be bought at the shop, do it if you want to stay in touch before heading out. Good viewing in the vicinity.

Another amazing trip to Kgalagadi Park. We camped at Twee Riveren in June. The daytime Temps are great / mild. Overnight Temps get very cold (-4 the one morning) The camp site wasn't full. Game drives were great. Each electrified camp site has a braai place , light, table. The ablutions are in very good condition. A lot of grass on the dunes and plains, which was great to see. The animals are in good condition with the abundance of food available. Big cats were difficult to find on this trip, but they are around and we had a great sighting of a large male cheetah. Plenty of game around - Wildebeest, springbok, Giraffe, Gemsbok, Hartebeest in large herds. The picnic sites are brilliant 👏

We spent one night in a beautiful chalet, clean, air conditioned, well equipped. Then we camped for 4 nights. It's a busy camp but you can cover quite a lot of the park from here. After regular rains, the park was green and beautiful! Lots of Springbuck, Gemsbok, Giraffes, lion, jackals, leopard (we had a perfect encounter!), ostrich, Meerkat and many more. The birding was awesome, lots of Pygmy Falcon, Lanner Falcon and many many other species. Also Kori Bustard and Secretary Birds. Camp life is always entertaining, although the commercial groups are not enhancing anyone's experience. The washing up and ablution areas are sufficient and clean. We love Kgalagadi and always start our month here. The service is excellent and friendly with wonderful staff, a great shop and lots of camp birds and animals to entertain you!!!!

We camped Ablutions are good and clean Although we booked specific sites it is a free for all, and we had to share with other people the first night. A good vase for game drives
