Hotels in Tuli Block

For a safari experience that feels genuinely wild, head to the Tuli Block in eastern Botswana. This is a vast, privately-owned conservation area defined by its dramatic landscapes—think ancient baobab trees, the winding Limpopo River, and rocky sandstone outcrops. The main draw is exclusive, low-impact wildlife viewing. You can track elephant herds on foot with a guide, spot leopard in the Mashatu Game Reserve, or take a night drive to see aardwolf and porcupine. It’s a place defined by adventure and wide-open spaces, not crowded game-viewing vehicles.

This destination suits adventurous travelers, particularly couples or small groups seeking a remote escape. Most visitors fly into Johannesburg or Gaborone and then take a charter flight directly to a private airstrip, as self-driving requires a 4x4 and careful planning. Your entire stay will typically be based at a single lodge, which acts as your hub for all activities and meals. The area is not designed for business travel or fast-paced touring; it’s about immersion in the bush.

Accommodation here is almost exclusively upscale, focusing on luxury safari lodges and intimate tented camps. On HOTEVI, you’ll find options like the classic Mashatu Main Camp, the riverfront Tuli Safari Lodge, the family-friendly Limpopo River Lodge, and the sophisticated Camp Mashatu. These properties offer all-inclusive packages with guided activities, ensuring a seamless connection to this remarkable wilderness.
