Camp Gecko has recently changed management and the new Operation Managers are Anna & Björn. The camp offers a total of six fixed safari tents, which are arranged idyllically and appealingly at a water hole. Two of the tents are multi-level tents, three further tents have only one level, last but not least the two family tents. The campsites on offer include three campsites set up on the mountain or along the mountain ridge, two of these campsites have completely private ablutions and the third is conveniently located near the Lapa and ablutions. All these campsites can accommodate up to six people. There is another campsite located near the farmhouse which is made up of 4 pitches that have two shared ablutions. Then a bit further away there is the "the wild one" campsite where guests can enjoy complete seclusion and privacy.
