Safari Centre Upington — Dr Nelson Mandela Drive Kalahari Gateway 4×4 Fitment and Camping Gear Store
Safari Centre Upington is the Kalahari gateway shop. It’s on Dr Nelson Mandela Drive in a town that’s the staging point for Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, Augrabies and the long Northern Cape gravel. The store’s own site calls 4×4 fitment its primary service. They install parts and accessories on 4x4s and also sell camping and outdoor gear. Directory listings and the national Safari Centre range cover roof racks, long-range tanks, dual-battery setups, rooftop tents, suspension, winches, snorkels, recovery gear, fridges, gas and water or fuel containers, so you can fix a short list and stock up in one stop.
It’s part of a national chain, but out here it’s the kind of shop an overlander actually needs. Stock varies, so call ahead on 054 331 2655 for what you need. Hours change, so verify ahead. Do your fitments and fill your water and fuel containers before you leave. Beyond Upington the distances get long and the help gets thin.
Last full 4x4 shop before the Kalahari.
