Okonjima Main Camp

Average guest rating:4.0

Okonjima is much more than a luxury lodge. It is also the home of the AfriCat Foundation, a non-profit organisation dedicated to the conservation and welfare of Namibia's wild predators, especially cheetahs and leopards.

The Foundation takes on a large number of cats who are caught on farmlands, including orphaned cubs. The AfriCat Cheetah Rehabilitation project was initiated to give some of the cheetah orphans an opportunity to return to their natural environment, and once they have proved that they can hunt and sustain themselves, they are relocated to private game reserves.

An ideal length of time to visit is 2 nights, which gives you the opportunity to participate in the many activities on offer including:

The tracking on foot of the rehabilitated cheetahs on the Cheetah Tracking Trail, or radio-tracking leopards from an open game viewing vehicle in the 4,000 hectare rehabilitation area

Bushman Trails and Walking Trails

Visit the Cheetah Project, an invaluable insight into the welfare work of the Foundation.

Okonjima Main Camp was originally a farmhouse, and opened as a lodge in 1992. All the 10 comfortable en-suite double rooms overlook a lush garden.

Guests can enjoy relaxing around the swimming pool, or sitting around the open fire in the evening before dinner is served in the pleasant dining area.

At the nocturnal hide, guests can view after-dinner nightlife, such as porcupine, honey badgers and caracal, amongst others.

"Everything you booked for us was just fine. We didn't run into any problems with our accomodations. I would highly recommend the Mushara Lodge, Gaub Guest Farm, and Africat Foundation as great places to stay.

Thank you for all your help with our trip. I would definately recommend your services to anyone else I know that might be travelling. If we find ourselves in need of an overseas travel agency again, we now know where to go."
