Desert
Other in-reserve desert activities
- Direct guests
- vip
- incentive
Activities DDCR explicitly lists as available inside the reserve beyond the headline safari formats.
How it operates
These run inside the conservation reserve, either added to a safari or booked as the reason for the drive in the first place. Access is through a permitted operator in every case — there is no independent entry to the reserve — so the activity and the transfer are contracted together.
For agents
