Behind the Scenes
“I absolutely love travelling with Bobby-Jo; her enthusiasm is truly infectious! I could drive through a wetland on my own, but without Bobby-Jo, it just wouldn’t be the same. I often find myself wishing for that same level of excitement in my travels all the time—if only that were possible! Mashatu is a fantastic destination for those of us aged 50 and above; the animals come right to you while you patiently wait at the hide, so you really get the best of both worlds. Whether you’re enjoying the calm at the hide or venturing out on a game drive, it’s a remarkable experience. The property is wonderfully diverse, featuring everything from palm trees to rocky outcrops, and I’m always amazed to discover new areas each time I visit.”

“Mashatu is the BEST place in Africa to photograph elephants! Viewing elephants in the underground hide is an experience everyone should have. The low angles for photography are just superb”
