After breakfast we leave the Boteti and soon arrive at Matswere Gate, where we enter the Central Kalahari Game Reserve. We make our way through the Passarge Valley (all these valleys are old fossil river beds now, with clusters of trees and grass). Lunch will be had in the shade of the acacia trees. In Passarge Valley the chances of seeing giraffe and cheetah are very good. Thereafter, we'll head back to camp for relaxation and freshening up.

Time permitting we go on a late afternoon walk on the pan itself. The campsite at Tau is most spectacular with beautiful views and sunsets over the vegetated pan - normally there is a good variety of game grazing in the background. Tau (meaning Lion) is well known for its predators and to hear lion at night and in the early morning is nothing unusual.
