BOTSWANA HORSEBACK SAFARIS:
LIMPOPO VALLEY HORSE SAFARIS
Your adventure begins by entering the region where over 800 elephants are scattered amongst numerous leopards, lions, cheetahs, African wildcats, antelope, jackal, bat-eared fox, giraffe, zebra, and wildebeest. In the "Land of Giants," activities such as game-viewing, log-jumping, cantering alongside herds of zebra, and luxuries such as bedded tents, sundowners around the campfire, and candlelit dinners await you.

TULI SAFARI 7days/8 nights end of March - end of October

This safari brings guests from wilderness fly camps to Mashatu camp, kgotla "sleeping under the stars" and Fort Jameson. Not only the excellent game-viewing but the world-class guiding and horsemanship combined with attention to detail and comfort set this safari on a whole other level. Riders are in the saddle between 4 and 7 hours per day, enjoying canters, galloping, and jumping logs knowing that a sundowner and a three-course dinner await each evening.

 

BIG 5 4 days in South Africa and 4 days in Botswana

Combining the best of Horizon Safaris in South Africa with the Limpopo Valley Safaris of Botswana, delivers the opportunity to view the Big Five (buffalo, elephant, rhino, leopard, and lion). Both are regions of great diversity with a unique richness in landscape and wildlife that stand on their own. With four days at Horizon and four days at Limpopo, guests will enjoy the luxurious Dinaka or Jembis lodges followed by safari nights in Botswana. In March and November only, rides include two nights of Mashatus (see below) stays so you can try different horses, ride twice per day and explore the area more extensively.

ACCOMMODATIONS

WILDERNESS FLY CAMPS
A-frame tents (3.5x6 meters) come with beds, sheets, and duvet covers. Each tent has its own long-drop loo, with a single shared bucket shower. To complement the rugged safari experience, meals are cooked around the campfire.
 

TWO MASHATUS CAMP
This static safari is based during March and November, it can also be used as the last night on the Tuli Safari and the first night for the Big Five. The camp is located near the Limpopo River with a view of the plains to the west. Each tent has its own long-drop loo and shower. Guests dine on a teak platform created using the local style of construction including the lala palm thatched roof.

This old tribal court now serves as a wilderness camp, where leadwood poles in sandstone formations of the Limpopo Basin are the foundation for the structure with running hot water and hot showers provided.
