The Kalahari Experience

Kalahari Desert

Colours run riot in the Kalahari Desert where yellow grass and dark green acacias are accentuated against burnt-orange sand and the blue of an infinite sky. And when the sun prepares its farewell for the day, it draws on all the hues of the celestial prism.

This is the time between day and dream when magic hovers and the fiery colours of sand dunes brighten and deepen. Life pauses catching its breath. And so does everyone else, standing atop a dune, watching this earthly show in vibrant colour.

The magnificent landscape is home to hardy desert-adapted gemsbok, springbok, ostrich, black-backed jackal, the massive kori bustard and the rambling nests of social weavers that have skilfully mastered thermodynamic principles and life in the desert.
