Little Madikwe also has its own private safari guide and vehicle, which is available to take you exploring whenever you wish, for as long as you like. The Madikwe Game Reserve is malaria free and semi-arid. Your guide will show you isolated waterholes where herds of elephant and buffalo gather to wallow and cool down. After the sun has set, you can spend some time exploring the reserve at night with a spotlight, looking for nocturnal creatures, such as leopard, aardwolf, and porcupine.
