Waterberg Biosphere Reserve Tours

Called this one "move away". As we were heading back to the way out, stopped by the lake to check on the marabou birds. Looks like the spot was crowded. #lifeatexpedia

Marakele National Park in South Africa is about 250 km away from Johannesburg, making it a perfect #WeekendGetaway from the big city. It is situated in the Waterberg district, on the border between the dry south and the tropical northern part of the country. The views are just stunning and the wildlife and birdlife beautiful to see. The campsite is located by a waterhole attracting a variety of animals.

Took to Welgevonden hoping to see this one. We had just stop for a light snack when bushmen and park rangers shouted "leopard, leopard"; we rushed back to the truck and our amazing driver blocked the other vehicules so we could witness this beast come out of the bush. I was at the back of the truck and he walked out in front of me. Soo intense. #lifeatexpedia.

Right before spotting the leopard (see other pic) we got to see hippo mummy and baby out of the water. Soo cute. #lifeatexpedia
