I loved seeing bat eared fox, the Tau Pan lion pride, the wild cat, and the birds were amazing. Hearing the lion pride at night was magical. The lodging was very comfortable; the staff made me feel special; the food was incredible. The scenery beauty was outstanding.

I found the reserve vast and full of Africa's predators, plus their game.

We enjoyed a mobile safari, camping among the animals. Our guide, Moses Ntema provided safe accommodations, hosted enjoyable evenings with specially prepared dinners, located lots of game and the predators who stalk them, and educated us on behaviors of lions, cheetah, and leopard. We spent hours sitting among lion prides, following leopards through the bush, or watching the cheetah lounge beneath shade trees in the Central Kalahari plains.

Surprisingly colorful for a "desert". Good wildlife numbers and loads of birds. Deception Valley is a worthwhile place to see.

The CKGR is a difficult safari destination, requiring many hours on rough roads. Thus, it feels truly wild. You must stay on your toes here!
