A True Overland Adventure Through the Untamed Kalahari

Venture deep into the heart of the Kalahari on this 11-day guided self-drive expedition—a journey where the red dunes stretch for miles, the wildlife roams freely, and the silence of the desert is as powerful as its beauty.

This is an off-grid, extreme 4×4 adventure, taking you through the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, across the remote pans of Botswana, and into the KD-1 Wildlife Area, where wild camping means no fences, no crowds—just pure African wilderness.
