Whether you choose to enjoy a safari on foot, horseback or in a more traditional fashion in a 4x4, all options are open in the Madikwe Game Reserve. A walking safari gives you the chance to better take in the sights, sounds and scents of the bush, while galloping through the bush on horseback means you can venture to areas that vehicles can't always reach.

Madikwe Game Reserve is the perfect spot for a family safari as it's malaria-free and home to some fantastic child-friendly lodges. Most lodges allow children aged six and up on game drives, and their expert guides aim to make it all as engaging as possible for little ones. There are also some great family-friendly activities on offer to keep them entertained between game drives while you enjoy some downtime.

There is a big focus on conservation in Madikwe Game Reserve, so take the opportunity to get involved in some of the initiatives. For instance, get involved in rhino conservation by taking part in the process of gathering DNA samples from rhinos while they've been darted by vets, which will help with their identification and monitoring in future.
