Mashatu Land of the Giants is an immersive journey into the heart of Mashatu, capturing the essence of its vast landscapes, diverse wildlife, and the unique spirit of this remarkable place.
Located at the confluence of the legendary Limpopo and Shashe rivers, Mashatu’s vast and untamed land is part of the Northern Tuli Game Reserve and a core area of the Greater Mapungubwe Transfrontier Park.
