Half-Day Game Drive (includes park fees):
Full-Day Game Drive (includes lunch & park fees):
Full-day experiences include rhino tracking on foot, San rock art caves, World's View, and a two-course bush lunch.
Book your adventureRhino tracking involves walking on uneven terrain for 2–3 hours, but we keep a comfortable pace and stop frequently. You don't need to be an athlete — just reasonably mobile. Our guides tailor each walk to the group's ability.
If you have mobility concerns, let us know when booking. We can suggest gentler alternatives like game drives or cave visits.
Most activities welcome children of all ages — including game drives, cave visits, and World's View. However, on-foot rhino tracking has a minimum age of 12 for safety reasons.
For younger children, we offer gentler alternatives: guided nature walks on the lodge property, bird spotting, and cultural experiences.
Children's rates (ages 4–11):
Accommodation: 50% of adult rate
Half-day game drive: US$65
Full-day game drive: US$120
Under 4 stay free (accommodation only)
National park fees: Children 6–12 pay reduced rates, under 6 free.
Absolutely. You don't need to stay overnight to experience Matobo with us. Day visitors can book any activity — from a half-day game drive to the full-day adventure.
We recommend booking at least 48 hours ahead, especially during peak season (May–October).
Pack light, but pack smart:
We'll supply refreshments — just bring your sense of adventure.
Yes. You're with licensed professional guides who follow strict rhino-tracking protocols. We move calmly, keep safe distances and adapt the walk to conditions throughout.

Children 6–12 pay reduced rates. Under 6 enter free. Vehicle fees apply separately.
Most activities depart early to catch the cooler hours and best wildlife sightings:
Not a morning person? Afternoon cave visits and sunset at World's View are stunning alternatives.
