What to expect:
This tour is for people with an adventurous spirit, who prefer more privacy and who are fine with basic facilities.
This is quite a unique way of exploring the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, both by vehicle and on foot. I am adding the Xerry Wilderness Trail for a truly holistic nature bases experience.
The campsites are not fenced and predators entering the camping area is common. The chances are good to hear predators call at night. This is a special way of exploring this very special place, the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park.
Approximate predator numbers: Lions – 450, Leopards – 150, Cheetah – 200, Spotted hyenas – 370. Bird species are 264, of which 20 raptor species are present. Antelope such as Gemsbok, Hartebeest, Springbok and Wildebeest are well represented.
