From the Augrabies Falls National Park we head into the Kalahari and the magnificent Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park. Covering over 3.6 million hectares this is one of the largest reserves in Africa.

Our drive today takes us inland through the Damaraland Region with its vast and rugged terrain.

A few hours are spent learning more about these unusual people. We then proceed to Etosha National Park where we enjoy your first game drive. (BD)
Etosha is one of the most important parks in Africa with thousands of wild animals such as Wildebeest, Springbok, Zebra, Kudu, Giraffe, Cheetah, Leopard, Lion and Elephant making this area their home.
