Limpopo-Lipadi Blog

This may not be the greatest video of hippos ever shot - certainly the compact camera used limits the quality - but there aren't many places in the world where you can look up from reading a book on your sofa in a private unit and find a hippo eyeing you from the river only 20 metres away!

An opportunity to again visit Limpopo-Lipadi came our way with friends John and Yolande Fulton visiting us from Canada. We together did a Botswana trip including the Central Kalahari Game Reserve, Savuti and Chobe and John and Yolande were very keen to visit Limpopo-Lipadi, which was much simplified by having Peter arrange our grocery shopping for the visit. Following the Limpopo-Lipadi stay, we were also able to include 2 nights at the new South African National Park of Mapungubwe, which we highly recommend in combination with a stay at Limpopo-Lipadi.
