The northernmost province of South Africa, Limpopo, is ideally situated as a gateway to Africa, sharing borders with Mozambique, Zimbabwe, and Botswana. The province, which gets its name from the powerful Limpopo River that runs along its northern border, is renowned for its rich historical and cultural legacy, diverse wildlife, and breathtaking scenery. The trip across Limpopo, which was formerly travelled by ox waggons along the Great North Road from Pretoria, now follows the Voortrekkers' historic path and offers contemporary roadways and amenities. With its incomparable wildlife and natural experiences, Limpopo now extends a warm welcome to tourists. The province is home to the northern region of the Kruger National Park, where tsessebe and sable antelope thrive, big herds of buffalo and elephants wander freely, and a variety of bird species are available for birdwatchers to enjoy.
