We were very fortunate to have Valentine as a guide and greatly enjoyed our day out. Whilst the highlight was seeing Rhino's the rest of the park trip was amazing and we simply had unforgettable day.

The full day matopos...

Tendai_M, Jan 2026

The full day matopos excursion was a great experience. Matopos is a beautiful park with something for everyone. We were able to visit some areas within the park with stunning paintings thousands of years old, marvel at the natural rock formations and see a few incredible animals. We did the tour through Bonisa excursions and I highly recommend them. The guide was very knowledgeable, friendly and went above and beyond. The company was great and allowed us to reschedule our excursion to avoid visiting the park on a rainy day at no extra.

Greetings Tendai ! It was a pleasure hosting you guys and touring Matopos National park. Thank you for taking time to share your experience with our company and we look forward to your next visit. All the Best
