Makgadikgadi & Central Kalahari

Desert, salt pans and sweeping grass plains form one of our planet's most spectacular wilderness areas at Makgadikgadi and the Central Kalahari Game Reserve. This dry, arid region poses a complete contrast to the lush wetlands of the Okavango Delta.

Outstanding safari to Botswana

Your agents gave outstanding service and we felt very special and comfortable in some really exposed places.
