The Kalahari Desert is a large semi-arid desert in Southern Africa covering much of Botswana and parts of Namibia and South Africa, with huge tracts of excellent grazing after good rains. The Kalahari supports more animals and plants than a true desert. There are small amounts of rainfall and the summer temperature is very high. Whether your in South Africa, Botswana or Namibia, the Kalahari offers a great contrast to the rest of each country, where you have the opportunity to view animals and plants adampted to living in these often very harsh conditions. We offer you comfort in the desert. Central Kalahari Game Reserve is a national park in the Kalahari desert of Botswana, it is the second largest game reserve in the world. The park and many other areas of the Kalahari contain giraffe, brown hyena, warthog, cheetah, wild dog, leopard, lion, blue wildebeest, eland, gemsbok, kudu and red hartebeest. The land is quite flat and some areas undulating, covered with some sand dunes, and areas of larger trees. Ancient river valleys like the well known Deception Valley made well known by the work of Mark and Delia Owens, are remote destinations we love to take our guests to experience true desert wilderness, and the unique species that live there. The Bushmen or San people, have inhabited the Kalahari for thousands of years. The Kalahari is a great destination.
