We love the Desert, we live in the Desert and we love to share the Desert We take you nowhere and show you nothing (OFF THE BEATEN TRACK) |
The area directly around Mabuasehube. We offer wilderness tours , in conjunction with Cornwall Safaris Previously hunting area but now open for tourism and no fences between here and the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park. You are hereby invited ...... For an EXCLUSIVE tour to a private concession area of 4 million hectares, an area previously only used for elite hunting safaris, but now open for tourism. It is an area adjoining the Mabuasehube-Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, there are no fences and no other people. The earmark of this area is that the owner of the concession wants to keep it as wild and exclusive as possible, allowing only a couple of small guided groups per year. Guided tours only by a selected few tour operators such as VIROSATOURS, otherwise a highly restricted area. We run safari's into the area on a weekly basis, where you start on Saturday evening at Cornwall ranch and end during the next week.
