Kgalagadi advice / tips!
Posted: 06 May 2016 11:56
Hi All,
I finally booked my holiday . We are doing Botswana and Namibia. The Namibia part is not new to me, but I have never been to KTP. Could you please give some advice / tips on the following camps where we are going to stay in the Kgalagadi (Water, toilets / ablutions, availability of fuel, power and anything else)?
Anyone one else in the area for a beer.... or jointly doing a dune trip or some other lekker stuff?
Please feel free to add anything you think is worthwhile doing whilst in the area that I've booked.
In short, my trip is as follows: (starting 16 June and ending 10 July 2016)
