Marakele National Park, South Africa

October 2013

Marakele National Park is located in  the Waterburg Mountains in South Africa.

The park is worth a visit for its stunning back drop alone.

But when we visited things were a little quiet on the wildlife side.

It was the dry time of the season, so that could have been a factor, or it could have been that our last few stops had been overly abundant with wildlife.

We did however get to see a Rhino again, but once again they seem to like us to view them from behind.

Tlopi Tented Camp, Marakele, South Africa

October 2013

Located in Marakele Nature Reserve in South Africa, Tlopi Tented Camp is a great place to sit back and enjoy it all.

The tents all have self catering facilities, including a BBQ, fridge and table.

The tent has a great balcony with a great view over a waterhole and the mountains.

The beds, while not spectacular are comfortable and better than your standard camp option of sleeping on the floor.

 As mentioned the tents have a great balcony, with great views, the perfect spot to watch animals come down to the waterhole for an evening or morning drink.
