Star Gazing

What you'll do

The already lunar-like landscape of the Makgadikgadi is the perfect spot to turn your gaze skywards. Leave camp under an inky sky to join an astronomy expert on an evening of star gazing. Dubbed one of the darkest places on the planet, the Makgadikgadi has a glorious view of the star-spangled sky. Hear all about the legends of the constellations and spot the Big Five of the Southern Hemisphere. These include the most dazzling formations from each type of deep-sky class, from nebulas to galaxies! You'll find the clearest nights between April and October when stargazing is out of this world. Return to base for a warming cuppa by the fire!
