Enjoy an afternoon tea session before mounting a roaring quad bike to discover the vast and endless plains of the Makgadikgadi Pans. During the dry season travellers can race across 1 600 square kilometres (200 square miles) of untouched land, with the only sound the smooth purring of your quad’s engine. Lounge under a gold-streaked sky as the sun disappears beneath the horizon, beckoning on the slate-dark night, illuminated by stars that dominate the wide expanse like shining diamonds. Revel in the wide open spaces around you as you fall asleep in the embrace of ancient baobab trees.
