Highlights

Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park

Day 1

Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park

There's nowhere quite like Botswana for a top-notch safari experience, and your safari begins now – lucky you! We'll let you know what lies ahead, then get this trip of a lifetime started.

One of the world’s largest protected areas, Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park extends across 38,000km² of the malaria-free Kalahari, split between South Africa and Botswana. Even as you drive to the entrance gate, a full 250km from the nearest town, you feel like you’re entering an older, wilder and more remote world. Once there, a landscape of red dunes and rolling seasonal grassland is hemmed in by dry riverbeds where gemsbok, wildebeest and springbok graze in the shade of ancient camelthorns. And while there are no elephants, rhinos or buffalo in Kgalagadi, few safari destinations are so rewarding for big cats, smaller carnivores and birds of prey.

Day 2

Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park

Early Morning Game Drive, Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park

Imagine being out in the soft, early morning light, wrapped in a blanket, just as the animals emerge from their night’s rest or from the shadows of their nighttime adventures. The world feels fresh and new on an early morning game drive, the sun has yet to beat down upon the earth, and it may end up being your favorite time to be out on safari.

Evening Game Drive, Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park

Going on an evening game drive is one of the highlights of any safari. This is when temperatures cool, the light becomes softer and the wildlife begins to get active. Not only will you be out when the light is best for taking photos, but it's also one of the best times of day for seeing the animals.
