Days 1 & 2: Ghanzi - Bushman Experience: The safari begins in Maun, where we meet by 10.00h and travel 300km to a cultural village on a farm in the Ghanzi area. We settle into camp and have a safari briefing. We are up early the next morning to enjoy a light breakfast before participating in a nature walk led by local Bushmen trackers. They will share their intricate bush knowledge and give us an insight into their unique and intriguing culture. There is time in the afternoon to enjoy a siesta, swim in the local dam and a village tour to meet the community. This evening we will be treated to a traditional Bushman meal and enjoy an evening of their song and dance around the campfire. (Day 1 L, D & Day 2 B,L,D) |
|
| |
Days 3-6: Central Kalahari Game Reserve: We enter the pristine wilderness of the largest game reserve in Botswana. We spend 4 nights exploring the undeveloped wilderness of the northern region of the Kalahari, moving from camp to camp. We will visit Pipers Pan, Tau Pan and Deception Valley in our exploration of the Kalahari. Savour the vast open spaces, clear night skies and uninterrupted beauty of the Kalahari on game drives and at camp. This is adventure camping in its purest form, water and communications are limited and we travel as a self-sufficient group. (B, L, D) |
 |
|
| |
Day 7: Maun, lodge: After our final morning game drive, we break camp and return to Maun, where our last night will be enjoyed in the comfort of a lodge. Dinner is at your own expense in a local restaurant. The following day you will be transferred to Maun Airport for onward connections. (Day 7 B, L & Day 8 B only)
