SAFARIS

There are two safari options for intermediate to experienced riders, where groups will ride between 3-6 hours per day for 8 days:

DINAKA LUXURY RIDING SAFARI

Based out of the lodge perched on the edge of a cliff, overlooking a large lake and plains, guests will take excursions to view and ride alongside herds of rhino, hippo, buffalo, giraffe, leopard, ostrich, zebra, and antelope. Days activities vary from traversing the vast stretches of flatlands where buffalo are encountered to mountain explorations where guests can view leopard, mountain zebra, reedbuck, baboons, African rock python, rock dassies, klipspringers, black eagles, and cape vultures. Early evenings are spent with a spot light, looking for nocturnal animals including aardvark, porcupine, and hyena.

 

BIG FIVE RIDING SAFARI

Combining the Dinaka Luxury safari with Limpopo Valley Horse Safari in Botswana, guests can take advantage of the unique and equally captivating landscapes and game views. In the Tuli block, the Mashatu Game Reserve is known as the "land of the giants" where riding trails cover riverine terrain and mopane bushveld including the famous sandstone formations of the Tuli. The highlight of this trip is certainly the wide variety of animals, including the Big Five: rhino, buffalo, leopard, elephant, and lion.
