For an immersion into the untamed allure and warm heart of Botswana's Tuli block, a visit to Tuli Safari Lodge or its camping sites, Nokalodi and Molema, is a must. While Tuli Safari Lodge beckons with luxurious lodge accommodations, Nokalodi and Molema present self-catering (self-contained) bush camps that promise an African adventure of a lifetime. Nestled within the Northern Tuli Game Reserve, both Tuli Safari Lodge and Nokalodi Bush Camp grace the eastern corner of Botswana, adjacent to the renowned Mapungubwe World Heritage Site in South Africa.

Positioned on the banks of the Limpopo River, the lodge itself is a mere 15 minutes upstream from the Pontdrift border. GPS coordinates: S 22 12 842 E 29 05 687.
In the Heart of Botswana's Tuli Block Within the enchanting Tuli block of Botswana, unique sandstone outcrops dominate the landscape.
