The province shares borders with the neighbouring SADC (Southern Africa Development Community) countries of Botswana in the western side, Mozambique on the east and Zimbabwe in the north.
Its proximity to all these SADC countries makes Limpopo the perfect springboard for exploring the riches of this exciting part of the African continent.
They call it the Great North. On the surface, it is a broad, boundless area, a landscape tanning itself in the heat of the African sun. However, let this not deter you because a look beyond reveals a land of immense beauty that brings interest and entertainment in generous amounts.
These are ancient lands, attested by the recently encrypted Mapungubwe World heritage site in the Limpopo Valley and Makapans Caves near Mokopane (Potgietersrus).
Limpopo is a land of beautiful and contrasting landscape, which is typical of Africa hence it has become a favourite destination for leisure and adventure travellers worldwide. Come to a region of infinite scenic beauty with a great diversity of natural and manmade attractions, rich cultural heritage and an abundance of wildlife and nature-based tourism opportunities.
Our network of protected areas and nature reserves are amongst the best in the African continent. Through these nature reserves, we seek to preserve our natural heritage for future generations and for sharing with the international community.
Enjoy your journey to Limpopo and our beautiful country of South Africa.

Leopard Visiting The Campsite - Latest Sightings
Note from the film makers:
We were in the camp site for 2 days and heard the calling of the leopard most of the time. The leopard prowled around the campsite during the night and drank all the water from a plastic basin we left on on of the camping tables. In the morning this guy obviously decided he was still thirsty and came around for a second sip. We were in the process of making our morning coffee when we heard it up close we got into the vehicle (in a rush and leaving our coffee on the table!) to go and look for it. I didn't even start the car before the leopard made it's appearance. We had the camera with us already and were lucky to get this footage ;-)

RESCUED BIG CATS OF AFRICA - A MUST SEE!
Jump to 5:49 for the best of the Big Cats of Moholoholo and to hear the lions ROAR!
After leaving Kruger National Park, we visited the Kinyonga Reptile Center & Moholoholo Animal Rescue Center.
It was a fascinating experience learning about the rescue cats and how they use them to teach the locals and tourists more about them... and why they shouldn't trap such amazing creatures.
We hope you enjoy the video and learn something new about African wildlife and how we can help preserve it for the future :)
Check back in a couple days for our vlog on visiting Blyde River Canyon and the incredible natural sights in the Blyde area!

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.
