    Activities

    With a warm cup of tea, your Land Rover awaits, accompanied by an enthusiastic tracker and ranger: that is the morning routine at Motswari Private Game Reserve.

    Your guides are ready to tell you all the stories about the African bush: any idea why hippos rarely eat meat? They do. After the morning game drive, it is time to unwind, or go on a bush walk: by foot the world moves slower and there is even more to discover. For a real unspoilt bush experience, leave the main lodge after lunch and enjoy a hike with a knowledgeable guide.

    After walking for a while, in the middle of nowhere, a tent is spotted; it is your home for a night. Your guide will prepare a meal on a warming fire, and then it is time to enjoy the luxury of the tent.

    Watch fireflies while showering in the bush bathroom and go to sleep under the night breeze and the sounds of the savannah. Wake up to the smell of hot coffee and prepare for another bush walk in the fresh morning dew.

    You will be joining brunch back at the main lodge, full of stories. After the evening game drive – together with happy hour drinks – the excellent cooks won’t let you go before you tried their most delicious salads, Kudu meat (a lean, healthy meat similar to venison) and chocolate cake.
