Makgadikgadi Pans & Meerkat Encounters

The Makgadikgadi Pans are among the largest salt flats on Earth, a dazzling white expanse that feels like another planet. Guided outings can include sunrise visits to habituated meerkat colonies, quad-bike rides across the pans and nights on a bedroll beneath the stars. After the rains, the area also draws zebra and wildebeest in large numbers, while the dry season is quieter and more stark. Dress for strong sun by day and cold nights.
