Description
Take a guided horseback ride beyond the private reserve and toward the Thamalakane River. Choose 3 or 4 hours and enjoy bush scenery, cattle posts, and possible river wildlife sightings.
Experience a deeper side of Botswana on a longer guided horseback ride that begins in a private wildlife reserve and continues beyond it into the surrounding bush landscape. This 3-hour or 4-hour experience is ideal for guests seeking a more immersive and scenic ride.
After riding through the reserve, the route ventures farther afield through traditional cattle posts before continuing toward the Thamalakane River. When the river is flowing, riders may have the chance to see hippos, crocodiles, and abundant birdlife, adding an extra layer of excitement to the journey.
With calm, well-trained horses and an experienced guide leading the way, this extended route offers a memorable way to explore the natural beauty of Botswana on horseback. The longer duration makes it especially appealing for riders who want more time in the saddle and a fuller sense of the landscape.
