From custom-crafted artwork on the convention center walls to furniture in guest rooms, recorded music from the streets of Cape Town and original crafts for guest souvenirs, Kalahari has a passion for sharing the beauty of Africa with resort guests.
The Kalahari Desert is inhabited primarily by Bantu speakers and Khoisan-speaking San, with a small number of Europeans.
Nǁng is one of the indigenous languages of South Africa, part of the Tuu language family found in parts of the interior, and in neighbouring Botswana. It’s spoken primarily by the San – the first tribe of hunter gatherers in the area, also known as “Bushmen”.
As the Wisconsin Dells began to develop into today’s “Waterpark Capital of the World,” Nelson built the first Kalahari Resort in 2000 and the rest is history. May 2000 – Kalahari opens its first property in Wisconsin Dells.
According to NASA, these rocks were folded and faulted around one billion years ago by mountain-building forces similar to those currently raising the Himalayas. Over millions of years, erosion planed off the mountains and formed the low hills that we see in the Kalahari Desert today.
The Fish River Canyon of southern Namibia is the second largest canyon in the World after the Grand Canyon of the USA. It consists of a northern upper and a southern lower canyon.
The Fish River Canyon, Africa’s answer to the Grand Canyon, is one of the best places in Namibia to stand in awe of the raw majesty of nature. Measuring 27km/17mi wide, 550m/1804ft deep, and 160km/99mi long, it’s the largest canyon on the continent and Namibia’s greatest geological wonder.
The beginnings of the canyon started about 500 million years ago when a fracture of the earth’s crust resulted in the collapse of the valley bottom forming a broad valley running north–south. Southward-moving glaciers deepened it, with more faults and erosion adding to the effect.
The village’s name comes from the Khoekhoe for “big snake.” The village was formerly the site of a prisoner-of-war camp established by the South African army in 1915 to house German inmates captured during the First World War. The inmates initially lived in tents but later built brick houses.

Namib is a vast cold coastal desert in southern Africa. The name has been derived from the world Nama which means “there is nothing”. The desert is arid and uninhabited barring a few scattered towns.
Flowing up from the Antarctic, the Benguela Current carries frigid waters with strong currents, so Namibia’s beaches are not ideal for swimming, but the contrast of desert and water is certainly a sight to behold.
This is thought to be the oldest desert in the world and has unforgettable terrain. It’s also home to a lot of wildlife – including some unique species – like the desert elephant. This desert has a diverse landscape as you cross it, and you’ll even see some greenery during the wet season.
The red color is a coating of iron oxide, which becomes more prominent (redder) as the desert stretches farther inland from the coast. The sea of red is interrupted in areas by small areas of white.
