DAY 3
Explore Central Kalahari Game Reserve
The day starts early as you head out into the vastness of the great Kalahari, stopping in Deception Valley en route. Named after the pan of the same name, that has confused people for decades because of its uncanny water-like blue clay, Deception Valley is where Mark and Delia Owens lived when they were researching the predators of the Kalahari. In the evenings and early mornings, you may hear the call of the Black-backed Jackal. Kalahari bushman will be making a campfire in the evenings.
DAY 4
Game drive in the Kalahari can be rewarding. Today is a relatively early start for the drive back to the conservancy and the lodge, with a game drive en route. Arriving back at the lodge around midday, there will be time to relax before the afternoon activity which may be a ride on a quad bike or an informative afternoon with the Bushmen, learning a few of their survival skills.
DAY 5
This is the final day of your Kalahari Desert Tour. There will be time for a last activity before breakfast. You will be transferred to the airstrip for your light aircraft flight back after a truly memorable and informative African safari in the Kalahari
