During days 2 to 6 of your Mashatu photo safari, you'll immerse yourself in the rich wildlife of Mashatu Game Reserve.
This is a land where huge herds of Elephants roam free, where the roar of a Lion punctuates the night, and where ancient and mighty Baobab trees tower like swollen sentinels over the wild savanna. Your Mashatu photo safari experience is sure to be unique to anything you have previously experienced in Africa. Mashatu offers amazing hide photography with alluring waterholes attracting mighty beasts to quench their thirst, offering close-ups difficult to imagine, but a joy to photograph! Hides are sunken into the ground, allowing you to photograph from ground level. Your time in the hides will be as much a sensory experience as it is a photographic one. No glass separating you from the wild allows you to see, smell, feel and hear the wonders of nature from a worms-eye perspective. Game drives offer superb predator photography (Lion, Leopard and Cheetah). Mashatu provides access to varied habitats and diverse wildlife viewing opportunities within this biodiverse region and guarantees a superb photo safari experience!
For the first three nights, you’ll settle in at the Mashatu Main Lodge, where luxury meets nature, providing comfort after thrilling game drives and photographic sessions. On the fourth night, you'll switch to the more intimate Mashatu Tented Camp, perfect for soaking in the wild sounds of the night. Your fifth night takes you to the unique Lala Limpopo overnight hide, offering an unparalleled overnight hide experience, where nocturnal wildlife photography becomes your focus. Finally, you'll return to Mashatu Tented Camp for a memorable last night, completing your unforgettable journey with nature at its finest.
