Pack your lens and get ready for an adventure of a lifetime at Mashatu Hide.
Experience an unforgettable wildlife viewing adventure at Mashatu Hide in the Mashatu Game Reserve, Botswana.
This hide is strategically located near a waterhole, a popular spot for wild animals such as elephants, lions, leopards, hyenas, and antelopes. The hide is a covered structure that allows visitors to observe and photograph the animals in their natural habitat without disturbing them.
You won't regret visiting the hide as it offers a unique opportunity to get up close and personal with the wild animals. Recently, our Director of Finance and Operations adventurer, Ann, witnessed the early morning frolicking of elephants at the waterhole, which was a fantastic sight to see. Observing the order of events is always entertaining as each species takes turns in the water.
Thanks, Ann, for the great footage 🎬 @atravelgirl
A message from our founder, Will Taylor -
Once again, I have had the great pleasure of working with my long-time friend and partner, Gerald Hinde, to produce a piece of work with which we are really happy in Safari Secrets.
With the intervening pandemic, this project took on many different guises as it evolved, and ultimately we wanted to not only showcase some amazing wildlife photographs and share stories of our adventures but also provide value for the reader in the form of advice on both locating animals and taking photographs of them.
My role as a conservationist and ranger was to teach some basic bush skills and ways to maximize your chances of encountering and photographing the Big Five. Gerald then gives advice on how best to capture these magnificent creatures - sharing technical photographic secrets and the artistry of getting the best images.
We feel this book is one of our best pieces of work, and we thoroughly enjoyed the journey. As you page through the book, we hope you feel you were along for the ride with us and get as much out of it as we did!!
DM to grab your copy now or contact Will on [email protected] to order now.

A typical girl's night out in the wild!
Night game drives can be filled with action, as most of the predators are active during the hours of darkness. Not only are they harder for prey to detect, but it is also cooler, which allows them to conserve energy during the hunt.
