Start your safari in Botswana in the Kalahari Desert at Jack's Camp. Here, you can enjoy comfortable lodging in Makgadikgadi before embarking on your quad biking journey.

At Kubu Island, you will explore the surrounds by quad bike during the day and return to an outdoor bed under an endless ceiling of stars. Discover the treasures of the desert the way the native Bushmen have done throughout the years.
