Detailed Trip Description

This Exploration is specifically designed to enjoy the Kalahari Desert at its most productive season, when it receives low sporadic rains and the wildlife migrates into the region in large numbers. This precious water creates a short yet incredibly prolific wildlife-viewing period with concentrations of desert species and their young in the fertile, ancient river valleys of Deception Valley in the Central Kalahari Game Reserve and the Makgadikgadi Pans National Park. In addition, we explore the contrasts of three major habitats: the Makgadikgadi “moonscape” salt pans, Deception Valley in the Kalahari Desert, and finally the fertile islands and waterways of the Okavango Delta. Specifically engineered to exploit the spectacular desert game concentrations in the Kalahari Desert and Makgadikgadi Pans during sporadic rains with a contrasting Okavango Delta experience (December to March). Prolific desert and savannah wildlife showcased. Serviced safari camps erected with large and comfortable dome tents. Varied overland transfers (water and land). The style and essence of Wilderness Safaris’ Adventurer Exploration safari takes you back to the long-gone days of Africa’s exploration – the ultimate safari. Our 3m x 3m dome tents, complete with verandas, allow you to feel more connected and open to the Earth and nature, accentuating the feeling of the wild and untamed. Pure cotton linen bedrolls (with down duvets) on GI stretchers, teak bedside table with silver lantern and mini luggage benches add to the atmosphere. Shared separate toilet and shower ‘bathrooms’ with old-style tin bucket showers and basins and all amenities create simple serviced comfort.
