Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park experience

Join a Kgalagadi sunset drive

Leave camp with a park guide as red dunes lose the day's heat and nocturnal animals begin moving through the dry riverbeds.

The experience

Stay in the Kalahari as daylight gives way to night

After sunset, Kgalagadi's temperature falls quickly and a different set of tracks and calls begins.

A park guide extends the search beyond the hours available to independent drivers.

Experience FAQ

Join a Kgalagadi sunset drive

Q01How does this differ from the dawn drive?

The guide follows the transition into darkness, when temperature, sound and animal activity change across the riverbed.

Q02Is the drive always offered?

No. Guided-drive operation and seats vary by camp and date, so the activity remains subject to direct confirmation.

Plan with Alex

Plan a Kgalagadi sunset drive

Travel from Johannesburg into wildlife country, follow the warm coast toward the Cape, or let spring flowers lead you north into the Kalahari.

We begin with the part of South Africa you most want to feel, then give the country enough time to change around you.

Portrait of Alex

I want you to follow leopard tracks at dawn, swim in the warm Indian Ocean, meet artists and historians in the cities, then watch the last light turn the Kalahari dunes red. South Africa can hold all of this in one journey.
