The Kalahari Desert, extending across several countries in southern Africa, is a vast semi-arid sandy savanna. Within this expansive desert lies the Central Kalahari Game Reserve (CKGR) in Botswana, one of the largest game reserves in the world, covering about 52,800 square kilometres. The reserve is characterized by salt pans, ancient riverbeds, and vast plains, offering a starkly beautiful landscape that varies from the rest of Botswana’s safari destinations.
Exploring the Central Kalahari Game Reserve offers an unparalleled adventure into one of Africa’s most untouched wilderness areas. It’s a place where visitors can experience the vastness and solitude of the desert, witness incredible wildlife spectacles, and gain insight into the ancient culture of the San people, all of which combine to create a deeply memorable safari experience.
