Description

Beautiful invitation-only ranch on 30,000 acres in Botswana, a unique setting in the heart of the Tuli Block where the ancient Limpopo and Magalakwena Rivers run together. This is an 8-day "create your own safari" for two people. The safari will be all-inclusive (except for airfare) and will be personalized to fit the needs of the winning bidder.

In addition to an excellent bush adventure to see wild animals, the area offers one of the richest displays of bird life in southern Africa, including jewel-toned kingfishers, saddle-billed storks, great herons, fish eagles, exotic paradise fly-catchers, and the rare pells fishing owl. The area is also home to the world's largest free-roaming wild elephant herd remaining on private land.

Visitors stay in the safari compound in thatched rondovas, appointed with artwork and rich displays of native handcraft. Each rondova has an in-suite shower and toilet facilities. Evening meals are served under the stars next to the fire or within the open-air boma. Day-time activities are designed to match each visitor's need for relaxation or adventure, including elephant viewing, photography, birding, eco-tours, hiking, fossil-hunting, fishing, mountain biking, or hammock laying with a "do-not-disturb" sign attached.

Proceeds benefit Tucson Interfaith HIV/AIDS Network.
