Deception Valley (Central Kalahari Game Reserve)
An early morning light breakfast prepares you for your game drives to explore this “waterless oasis” known as Deception Valley, which was named after the riverbed which evokes the illusion of containing water. Home to a diverse population of wildlife, the area’s mature woodland entices large herds of greater kudu, red hartebeest, springbok, gemsbok, and elands but also predators including caracals, Cape foxes, lions, cheetahs, and brown hyenas, which you should see on your morning and afternoon game drives.

You will spend the next 2 nights camping and exploring Makgadikgadi Pans National Park. Makgadikgadi Pans National Park is definitely one of the most unique places for a safari when in Botswana. Predators are enticed into the area with the migration of zebras and wildebeest in the summer months. Both lions and cheetahs can be found regularly. Elephants have also become a more regular sighting with the introduction of pumped pans in the area.
