A More Comfortable Way to Experience Conservation in South Africa

If you are looking for comfortable and private accommodation in the heart of the South African bush during your volunteer experience with DAKTARI, Kamoka Camp offers a unique and sustainable bush stay designed for adult volunteers and travellers seeking more comfort and tranquillity. Spend your days taking part in DAKTARI’s inspiring wildlife and environmental education programme with local children, while enjoying the privacy, nature and eco-friendly atmosphere of Kamoka Camp after hours.

Not just volunteering, this is an enjoyable and joyful journey!

After a rewarding day of volunteering, unwind in the comfort of your private unit, designed to help you fully relax and reconnect with nature. Kamoka Camp invites you to slow down and immerse yourself in the peaceful rhythm of the bush.

Your accommodation includes everything for a cozy stay, with a fully equipped kitchen area, a braai for outdoor cooking, an en-suite bathroom, and a private terrace to enjoy the surrounding scenery.

New concept of integrating a lodge with DAKTARI’s mission and vision

Kamoka Camp, our trusted partner, provides a peaceful retreat while keeping you closely connected to the spirit of DAKTARI.

Beyond simply hosting guests, Kamoka Camp serves a greater purpose—supporting environmental education and wildlife conservation. By choosing to stay here, volunteers not only enjoy a more exclusive setting but also contribute to a meaningful cause.

It’s a unique balance of relaxation and impact, where every stay helps sustain our work with local communities and inspires a deeper connection to the wildlife.

A Day in the Life: Volunteering with Comfort at Kamoka Camp

As the sun rises over the bush, you’re greeted by the soft sounds of nature—birds calling, leaves rustling, and the distant stir of wildlife. With a coffee in hand, you ease into the morning before heading to DAKTARI.

In DAKTARI, you’ll take part in educational sessions with local children and assist with animal care. Each moment is hands-on and meaningful, offering a genuine connection to both the community and the environment.

After a fruitful day, you return to Kamoka Camp, where a more private and peaceful setting awaits. Here, you can truly unwind—whether it’s enjoying a relaxed braai under the open sky, or simply taking in the views from your terrace as the bush shifts into its golden evening light.

As night falls, the camp becomes a quiet sanctuary. The sounds of the wild surround you, and the stars stretch endlessly above—reminding you just how unique and deeply restorative this volunteering journey is.
