Makgadikgadi Pans National Park Holidays

Makgadikgadi Pans National Park safari holidays offer a truly off the beaten track adventure, showcasing extraordinary wildlife and one of Botswana’s most distinctive landscapes.

A lesser-known attraction, Makgadikgadi Pans National Park is a vast, desolate landscape, home to many desert adapted species including springbok, gemsbok and aardvark. The park is also one of the few places in Botswana where visitors may be lucky enough to spot wild meerkats.

Shimmering salt pans are located in large areas to the south and east of the park and are widely believed to be one of the largest salt flats in the world. The park is also home to the second largest zebra migration in Africa, where massive herds of zebra and wildebeest migrate between the west of the park in the dry season from May to October, moving to the east of the park.
