About Tuli Block

The Tuli Block is situated in the eastern corner of Botswana, bordering Zimbabwe to the north and, across the Limpopo River, South Africa to the south.

Although not as well-known as Botswana's more famous Moremi Game Reserve, Okavango Delta and Chobe National Park, the remote Tuli area comprises a diverse wilderness of savannah, riverine forests, marshland, open plains and rocky outrops.

There is abundant wildlife and the area is known for its large herds of elephants. Predators such as lion, leopard, cheetah, and hyena are attracted by large numbers of migrating wildebeest, kudu, eland, and impala. More than 350 species of birds have been recorded in the Tuli region.

For keen wildlife photographers, the plentiful game and lack of thick vegetation make it easier to spot wildlife and capture those special Tuli Block Safari Pictures for which the area is becoming renowned.

A number of private game reserves are situated within Tuli, including Mashatu Game Reserve, where the above pictures were taken.

Camera Gear: Our safari photos were taken using entry-level Canon digital SLR cameras (EOS 300D to 450D), plus a variety of Canon telephoto lenses, including the Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS USM telephoto zoom, Canon EF 70-300 f/4-5.6 IS USM telephoto zoom, Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM tele zoom, the Canon EF 300mm f/2.8L USM telephoto lens with a 2x converter and Canon EF 300mm f/4L IS USM with 1.4x converter.
