InventTour - Planet Baobab Pans Sleep Out

Spend the night sleeping out under the stars on the lunar-like landscape of the pans in a magical fly camp…

In the afternoon, drive across the vast grasslands in a 4x4, past the lonely baobab sentinels, to Xau Xai where the quad bikes are stationed. Along the way, the guide will explain the incredible adaptations of the species that are unique to the Kalahari Desert environment and you will meet some of the Kalahari’s most fascinating inhabitants, the meerkats. Due to an ongoing habituation programme, it’s possible for guests to get up close and personal with the captivating creatures. Remember: they are not tame, just used to our non-threatening presence, and in the absence of termite mounds or trees, you may find one using your head as a sentry lookout post!

After your meerkat mission, it’s time to head to camp, or to be more accurate, the middle of nowheresville! Pick up your quad bike, open the throttle and head out into the magical Makgadikgadi... Ntwetwe is the bigger of the two Makgadikgadi saltpans and breath-taking views of sparkling saltpan extend as far as the eye can see. Enjoy a drink before a barren and beauteous sunset, followed by a barbeque dinner cooked by your ever-talented guide. At the end of an action-packed day, snuggle up in your bedroll under the phenomenal Makgadikgadi skies, your very own star-spangled ceiling. Think silence, think slumber, dream baobabs...
