Trip Itinerary

Day 1-2 Head for Camp Kalahari

Staying at Camp Kalahari

Arrive at Maun Airport where you will be transferred to the beauty of Camp Kalahari for five nights. You'll spend the first two days at camp without crowds or vehicles, the focus here is on slower, more immersive experiences. Walk with San Bushmen to learn their ancient survival techniques, watch meerkats emerge at dawn, and marvel at brown hyenas moving through the grasses.

Day 3 Lost Island of Baobabs

After an early breakfast, wrap yourself in a traditional kikoi and prepare for an exhilarating ride across Nwetwe Pan on quad bikes, bound for the Lost Island of Baobabs. The journey takes you across 450 kilometres of the expansive Makgadikgadi Salt Pans—a seemingly endless, white desert stretching out before you. The thrill of the adventure is heightened by the isolation of the environment, where you lose all sense of time and direction. As you travel, stop for a picnic lunch amidst the salt pans, taking a moment to appreciate the vast, surreal landscape.

Arriving at the Lost Island of Baobabs as the sun sets, you’ll find camp already set up for you. Your five-star "room" under the African sky awaits, complete with hot water bottles and duvets to ensure a comfortable night beneath the stars.

Day 4 Discover the Sacred Kubu Island & sleep out under the stars

Day 5 Return to Camp & Desert Reflection

Day 6 Farewell to Botswana

May

With the rainy season at an end, the temperature falls, making bush excursions more pleasant. Nights can be a little chilly, so you'll probably need an extra layer if you're heading out on an evening game drive. Skies become clearer and there are fewer mosquitoes. This is one of our favourite months to travel and also marks the final month before the peak season rates kick in in most camps.
