BOTSWANA

With the Koro Island Camp as our base, and the Limpopo River our companion, the expansive Northern Tuli Game Reserve is very much ours to explore. Jeep tracks and game trails lead the way across hilly terrain, while mopane thickets open up just enough to allow for real “off-road” riding.

Tuli is known as land of giants, with signs of elephant activity all around us. The waterholes located away from the river draw in the herds throughout the dry season to offer close up sightings of these magnificent creatures in their natural, untouched habitats. But it’s not just the elephants who rule here – the elusive brown hyena freely roam these plains, while large prides of lion dominate at night. If timed right, we could hear these big cats stirring as they begin their nocturnal movements during one of our evening game drive sundowners.

For those feeling extra adventurous, a night spent under the stars at our exclusive overnight site brings you even closer to the sights and sounds of this incredible wilderness.
