He is a great guy, has an amazing knowledge of the desert but not only: we had very interesting conversations about African culture, history and politics. We stayed a month and a half in SA but we learnt almost everything from him about wildlife in only 3 days. Mention Upington and the mind conjures up visions of a desolate and sunbaked Kalahari desert town where man’s existence is a daily struggle. The Orange River runs like a glittering green ribbon through the beautiful Kalahari Desert. For visitors it’s much easier to bring this contrasting ecosystems together with a tour guide that grew up and lived his whole life here. All lodges has it’s own kitchen, bathroom and bedroom and is fully equipped with linen and fridge. IMPORTANT: The Wilderness camps are all unfenced, allowing you to feel at one with the Kalahari. Every camp has it’s own design, and natural materials such as wood, reeds and canvas are used to create a rustic feeling. This park is one of the most pristine conservation areas on earth. It’s 38000km² of truly Kalahari semi desert vegetation, with the ancient Acacia trees, red sand, saltpans and wide variety of desert animals making it a photographers paradise. The Nossob- and Auob rivers are ephemeral, meaning that it’s dry and only flows during a very good rainy season. Together with the small creatures and hundreds of plants species, it all comes together to form a truly well balanced ecosystem. Kalahari Safaris will pick you up on the day of your tour and deliver you safely at the guesthouse of your choice after your Kalahari Experience.
