Why we love it
Explore Marataba on day and night game drives and boat cruises with your guide and spot the resident wildlife.
Wildlife monitoring and management is a core function of Marataba’s conservation team and we encourage you to get involved where you can.
Join the monitoring team and telemetry track collared cheetah. Walk into the sighting, assess animal behaviour and report back to the conservation team.
Contribute to the camera trap network establishment and purchase a camera trap to provide a behind the scenes look at what happens in the Park during the day and night.
Learn how to identify rhinos through their ear notches. This experience can be done at any stage on a game drive and from just looking at these magnificent animals, you start to understand some of the work and monitoring that takes place.
Participate in monitoring and walking the fence line for a snare patrol check. This activity starts with learning how easily snares are made, how they are set up and the damage and fatalities caused to wildlife.

Absolutely amazing holiday. Garonga is heaven! We did everything possible and our guide was brilliant and hilarious. I can definitely recommend True Travel for their excellent advice and professionalism – they clearly are very knowledgeable about where they send their clients and made sure we had a worry-free holiday that perfectly suited us. We were particular grateful for the collection off our flight and help onto our transfer in Johannesburg, which included a very nifty queue jump due to their reputation!
