Offering photographic experiences of a lifetime! We are located in the heart of Mashatu Game Reserve.

Mashatu Game Reserve is situated at the confluence of the great Limpopo and Shashe Rivers in the remote eastern corner of Botswana. This area is known historically as the Tuli Enclave and it is here where the three countries; Botswana, South Africa and Zimbabwe meet.

Patience at LalaLimpopo pays off.

A lone bull elephant walks into the frame, giving Kerrie the perfect opportunity to capture the moment. Sometimes, all it takes is waiting for the right subject to arrive and being ready when it does.

Flashback Friday!

A little reminder that even Mashatu’s big cats make their way to our hides. They may only stop for a quick drink, but the memories and photographs can last a lifetime.

In a lion pride, the lionesses do most of the hands-on parenting. From nursing and grooming to protecting and teaching their cubs, raising the next generation is a team effort. Lionesses may even nurse and protect one another’s young.

The males have a different role. While they may tolerate a cub’s playful antics, their biggest contribution is defending the pride’s territory against rivals. Think of it as communal childcare with heavily armed neighborhood security!

Four zebras against the blue backdrop at LalaLimpopo, with our specialist lighting giving the evening a different perspective. By morning, the warthogs had their turn to warm our gaze. And yes, both groups arrived in fours!

Different visitors, different light!

Hyenas are actually “giant mongooses”… well, sort of!

Despite their dog-like appearance, spotted hyenas are more closely related to cats and mongooses than to dogs. Both belong to Feliformia, the cat-like branch of carnivores, sharing an evolutionary ancestor.

Not giant mongooses, exactly, but certainly unexpected cousins in the animal kingdom! And at LalaLimpopo, this family line makes occasional visits, bringing a little more life to our nights.

We also offer a Banded Mongoose gymnasium!

Just before the end of the blue hour at LalaLimpopo, this troop arrived for a little evening activity. One member decided to show off its acrobatic skills, and Karen Kratz was ready to capture it all through her lens.

A new generation of one of nature’s most important environmental custodians.

This hyena pup enters a world where balance matters. As scavengers and hunters, hyenas play a vital role in keeping ecosystems healthy, reminding us that every species has its place in the circle of life.

Just under an hour after a bull elephant paid us a visit, a pack of hyenas strolled by the LalaLimpopo Sleep-Out Hide. Only two decided to come within range of our lights, stopping for a drink at the waterhole.

One night, two very different encounters, and another reminder that you never quite know what might appear next at LalaLimpopo.
