Take game drives and night drives in custom built 4x4s to spot the unique desert wildlife that inhabit the pans, like the elusive brown hyena or Kalahari lion. Your experienced safari guide will help you discover a desert landscape, pulsating with life. Complete with bush picnics, morning coffees and chilled drinks.

Get up close and personal with our families of meerkats. Leaving camp as the sun begins to rise you will accompany these inquisitive members of the mongoose family as they set off in search of their breakfast. Walk amongst them (you're not allowed to touch or feed them) and if you take a seat you might be lucky enough to be mistaken for a termite mound, where you'll be used as a look out point for predators.

Discover the secrets of the pans with the Zu/’hoasi Bushmen on a fascinating bush walk. See this ancient desert landscape through their eyes. These skilled hunter gatherers will show you how to survive, using their extraordinary tracking skills to uncover a smorgasbord of culinary delights... from bulbs, to scorpions, to berries. Spending time with them is a very rare privilege.

Saddle up to explore this wild, unspoilt area in the same way many of the earliest explorers, hunters
and missionaries did – on horseback! You’ll embark on an adventurous outride (for all level riders). This is an exhilarating way to spot wildlife, cantering along the crusty salt flats and following the animal
highways that bring life to the Makgadikgadi Pans.

This is an additional cost.

This is pure desert adventure! Take an exhilarating

quad bike across the salt-crusted pans

(all pan activity is weather permitting). You’ll

feel total freedom as you trek across this vast

and ancient landscape, discovering so much

about the remnants of this once super lake. Weather permitting)

A visit to the Fallen Baobab - one of the three largest and oldest trees in Africa and reputedly the campsite of Livingstone and Selous.

Witness the second largest migration in Africa.

A stonking spectacle of black and white stripes

as approximately 30,000 zebra and wildebeest

migrate across the Makgadikgadi Pans, followed

closely by stalking predators, waiting for the rich

pickings of tired hooves. This is a wildlife explosion

and an experience not to be missed!

This really is an unforgettable experience.
Enjoy a helicopter flight over the Makgadikgadi
Pans, doors off (or on), to take in the vastness
of this desert landscape. You’ll go in search of
the zebra and flamingo migrations (if timed
correctly), get dropped on an island of baobabs
for lunch, do a bit of sunset sky surfing as you
follow the palm tree linings and tell all your
friends about it all when you get home.

At an additional cost.

Grab a fat bike and peddle around the Makgadikgadi

Pans. This is a really fun activity for

the whole family, and an ideal way to get some

exercise. These bikes can easily cruise over the

desert terrain, taking you along 4x4 tracks and

around the crusty salt flats. Keep a look out

for sightings of wildlife, while breathing in the

beautiful scenery, alongside the desert silence.
