Sometimes you just want to get away, experience a new adventure, a greater peace...truly undertake an odyssey. Then we suggest you immerse yourself in one of the wildest and most remote places in Southern Africa. We promise vast solitude, extraordinary skies, and nothing man-made for hundreds of kilometres in any direction.
For a taste of what awaits, just read our Tour Plan and transport yourself mentally into the magic of lonely places with timeless beauty and a rugged, endless silence.
Tour Plan
•Our magical adventure through the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park begins at Rooiputs. It is a game drive all the way from Twee Rivieren and we will be looking for the elusive African wildcats and suricates. Rooiputs is on the Botswana side with no fences, so it presents a real bush experience.
•After breakfast you make your way to Nossob Camp via the Nossob and Auob River roads. These are good open dirt roads on the South African side with waterholes en-route and even the promise of giraffes. The waterhole at the campsite might be busy as water is not readily available in the park. After a great dinner, we relax and socialise around the fire.
•After an early rise and light breakfast, we head east, crossing the Nossob River into the Botswana section of Transfrontier Park. From here we take the Boso Trail (Southern route), heading east towards Mabuasehube. It is a beautiful day’s drive through some of the most amazing dune fields; here we will stop for lunch en-route.
•For the next four days, we will traverse one of the wildest and most remote places in Southern Africa. The roads consist of two-spoor tracks, cutting through the red Kalahari sand. The area is renowned for its low-lying pans, where giant eland, springbok, gemsbok and the famous Kalahari lions come to quench their thirst.
•The birding also promises to be good as the summer visitors would have arrived. Even rare visitors like the Greater Painted Snipes were seen in Mabua in 2022.
•Except for the rustic vehicle tracks, long drops and shower cubicles, there is nothing else man-made. Without light pollution, the heavenly night skies and solitude will take your breath away. For these four nights we will be camping wild and enjoying the silence and sounds of the African bush. Sunrise and sunsets are spectacular and the days are spent game viewing in an area known for lion, leopard, cheetah, honey badger, and brown hyena sightings.
So, have we whet your appetite? Come and join us for an ‘out of this world’ experience; a true journey for the intrepid, the explorer, the soul-seeker.
