Then, enjoy beautiful nights with nature as the animals howl within hearing distance. This tour will bring many memories as you become closer to the wildlife of South Africa.
On the first day of your trip you will depart from Upington to the largest camp in Kgalagadi Trans Frontier Park for an afternoon game drive in this 37 000 square km park, which is one of the largest conservation areas in the world and one of the last truly unspoiled ecosystems. Endemic game such as gemsbok, springbok, eland, giraffe, blue wildebeest and red hartebeest roam the sparsely vegetated red sand dunes and the dry river valleys of the Nossob and Auob where a variety of acacia species thrive. The Park is also well known for sightings of lions, leopards, cheetahs and spotted brown hyena. Because of an abundance of prey in the form of mice, whistling rats, birds and insects, smaller predators thrive in the park. The park is home to caracal, honey badgers, black-backed jackals, bat-eared foxes, cape foxes, African wildcats, mongoose and the ever-popular suricate (meerkat).
