Safari Homes Pay for 2, Stay for 3 nights: 

For a private and luxurious multi-generational family experience, families can book one of Mashatu’s exclusive-use safari homes, perfect for up to 8 people, and enjoy your third night free!  Kolokolo and Shalimpo Safari Homes both boast 4 bedrooms each.

These offers are valid for the half term holidays from 16 -31 October 2024, as well as for the months of December 2024 and January 2025, using promo code FAMSPECIAL24.

Please note that children under five years of age are not permitted on game drives unless the family has reserved sole-use of a vehicle. Babysitting services and Kids@Mashatu programmes are however available and can be arranged prior to / on arrival in camp with camp management.

Family Happy Hour at Matebole Hide

In other big news, Mashatu has introduced a new “Family Happy Hour at Matebole Hide,” allowing families with younger children to experience close-up wildlife sightings (especially ellies) at eye level. Families can now book an hour-long session either after their morning game drive or before the afternoon drive, at a reduced rate of $35 per person. Rates are usually $90 per person for the morning or afternoon session which is around 3 – 4 hours, so this makes the experience a lot more affordable and family-friendly for those with shorter attention spans.  Subject to availability and terms and restrictions apply.
