Sherpa Camp is based in the wilderness area of DDCR - a 225-square-kilometre area that has been protected for 23 years with very restricted access. Sand Sherpa is the only company permitted to operate a camp here. Adventurers stay in private locations throughout undulating dunes and amidst trees, but within easy access to bathroom facilities and our main camp area, where dinner and breakfast is served.
Each camping trailer is equipped with a rooftop tent, outdoor sofa, firepit, cooler, barbeque grill and more! Guests are transferred between their hotel/residence and camp by our guide and once they enter the reserve, they enjoy a scenic drive on our specially prepared track to camp.
Bush meals are prepared for campers, including salad, burgers and pizza, while bedding is also ready in their tents.
An evening nature walk is optional with our camp leader, while in the morning, participants are also invited to a hawk walk to identify animal tracks that have appeared overnight.

Amazing experience! Would recommend to everyone. I’ve tried a few “desert experiences” and this is the first that was full nature immersion, and with great guides. Love the focus on sustainability.

The camp is simple, peaceful private and concenient.
Everything from the hospitality to the sleeping arrangements and the nature conservation is very well organised.
The sleeping sherpas are wide and comfortable, the rangers are very well educated and good with people.
Overall an experience I recommend for people looking for a unique experience to disconnect.
