Luxury Holidays to The Kalahari Desert

The Kalahari Desert is a vast expanse of arid land that covers most of Botswana and dips into Namibia. It’s home to some of the most pristine landscapes in Africa and the breathtaking Central Kalahari Game Reserve.

The Best of The Kalahari Desert

A luxury holiday to the Kalahari Desert offers unusual landscapes, with large areas of lush, fertile terrain and expansive sand basins. From cheetahs to grazing springbok to black-maned lion prides, the wealth of life here is staggering. The Central Kalahari Game Reserve is simply immense; it’s the largest private game reserve in southern Africa and the second largest wildlife reserve in the world.

Only a few travellers visit here each year, and our safari specialists recommend it to our clients who want to experience a wild and remote part of Africa. You can visit the reserve all year round, but the kind of experience you have can vary. We generally recommend February to April, when the summer rains begin to dissipate and the reserve’s verdant northern territories teem with grazing herbivores and their stalking predators.
