Itinerary
The day before our safari, we will have a meet-and-greet when we will receive a comprehensive in-person briefing and address any requests or questions.
We depart from Maun. Our guide will pick you up from your lodge or hotel. After breakfast, we'll head to Deception Valley in the Central Kalahari Game Reserve.
Enjoy your bush-packed lunch in a lovely location. Following that, you may go on game drives across Botswana's Kalahari Desert to see the old riverbeds, dunes, and animals.
Sunset viewing: Find a gorgeous location to watch the sunset over the African terrain, which is an excellent opportunity for photography.
Go to the campsite to refresh up and eat dinner, then sit around the fire and talk the night away.
Main Destination: Maun (City).
Accommodation: mid-range camping.
Before your morning game drive to explore this "waterless oasis" known as Deception Valley, indulge in a light breakfast. It was called from the riverbed, which creates the illusion of containing water. Enjoy a tea break on your game drive before returning to camp.
Enjoy your meal and unwind before your afternoon game drive.
Deception Valley is home to a rich range of fauna. The area's mature woods attract vast herds of greater kudu, red hartebeest, springbok, gemsbok, and eland, as well as predators like caracal, Cape fox, lion, cheetah, and brown hyena.
After your afternoon game drive, return to camp for a chef-prepared dinner and a night of conversation.

The web-footed antelope thrives in swampy habitats. African wild canines, whose numbers are quickly declining elsewhere, are frequently observed at the Moremi Game Reserve.
