Our Story

A legacy since 1937

Our History

The story of Jansen Kalahari Guest Farm began in 1937 when our family first settled in this remarkable corner of Southern Namibia. What started as a traditional farming operation has evolved into a cherished destination that shares the magic of the Kalahari with visitors from around the world.

Through generations, we’ve maintained our commitment to sustainable farming practices while developing comfortable accommodations that allow guests to experience the authentic charm of farm life in the Kalahari.

Today, we continue to honor our heritage while embracing modern hospitality, creating unforgettable experiences for our guests while preserving the natural beauty of our surroundings.
