Central Kalahari Game Reserve
Sprawling across 52,800 square kilometres of arid bushveld, the Central Kalahari Game Reserve is one of the largest wildlife viewing destinations in the world. Despite its often harsh terrain, it’s home to an abundance of wildlife that includes giraffes, hyenas and cheetahs, as well as desert-adapted species of lions and rhinos.
Guided safaris through the Central Kalahari take in its fossilised river valleys, including the strikingly beautiful Deception Valley with its wooded dunes. Following the rains, you’re likely to encounter herds of springbok, gemsbok and wildebeest on thrilling game drives through the remote landscapes of Piper’s Pan. By night, the Central Kalahari is just as majestic and offers some of the best stargazing in Africa.
