Where luxury meets the wilderness

Tucked away in the south-eastern corner of Botswana, Tuli Game Reserve offers excellent game viewing and luxurious value-for-money accommodat­ion. Gauteng is only a four-hour drive away, which makes Tuli a good destinatio­n for a long weekend.

Home to savanna, riverine forest, marshland, open plains and sandstone cliffs, it’s a unique wilderness area with an abundance of wildlife and a rich archaeolog­ical history. The region has evidence of human occupation going back to the Stone Age – the forerunner to a series of settlement­s including Mapungubwe and Great Zimbabwe.

Many early explorers and hunters passed through and wrote about the Limpopo and its tributarie­s. Tuli also played host to a series of skirmishes during the Anglo-Boer War, including the Battle of Bryce’s Store on 2 November 1899.

Tuli Game Reserve is a land of big skies, trees, elephants, big cats, herds of antelope and more than 350 species of birds.

The five lodges in the reserve have facilities for small or big groups, bush weddings, romantic getaways, milestone birthdays and business indabas, and the Tuli team will provide you with the highest standards of service and comfort.

Competitio­n winners will stay at Pride Rock, built in a riverine forest on cliffs overlookin­g the Limpopo. Activities include mountain biking, birdwatchi­ng, rock art tours and game drives.

Photograph­ers, nature lovers, amateur archaeolog­ists: Everyone will love Pride Rock!

It is surprising­ly affordable to stay over at Tuli Game Reserve. Have a look at the range of unbelievab­le specials for go! readers.
