Husband and wife award-winning photographersPhilip and Ingrid van den Berg share a love of Africa and all its facets. It is their passion to capture unique moments in nature and share these with readers, through the pages of their wildlife books.

REGULAR UPDATES
Please consider, at a cost naturally, sending to your registered clients updates on the park in question. For example, which camps have upgraded their units and what were done to the units. This will be very useful in keeping your publications up to date that will be very helpful when planning one's trip to the relevant camp.
Thank you for an excellent publication.

Kgalagadi Essential
Beautiful book that has been invaluable for the planning of our first trip to Kgalagadi Transfrontier park. I used their Kruger book for my first trip and I loved it so much that I knew I had to get this one.
I actually purchased this book as a gift for someone after being so impressed with the copy I bought for myself some months ago. The book contains so much useful information and the photographs are outstanding.
Awesome compact little book. The children can't put it down, Lovely pictures.
