The park is well run, with good roads and tracks. The scenery is spectacular, and the rock art we saw was the best we'd seen in our journey. There are no elephants, and not a huge amount of other wildlife, but we were there to see rhino, and the chance of seeing them is quite high. There is also a chance to buy curios there from local villagers, at higher quality and much lower prices than Victoria Falls.

Matobo is very special in the sense that you will not only find wildlife, but amazing balancing rock formations as well as bushman paintings to be seen in caves.

It was just an attractive place and the strange rock/boulders were incredible.

It was helped by the guide we had but I saw so much more interesting things there than on may other safaris.

Fantastic park, just be careful of some of the dirt roads where a "proper" 4x4 is needed

Matobo (Matopos) has amazing for its scenery, historic/cultural and geologic interest, more than wildlife. balancing rocks and 10,000 year old cave paintings.

Majestic. Moreso with the historic Cecil John Rhodes Gravesite.

Matabo is a great destination, scenic wise. We stayed at the Shumba Shaba Lodge in a spectacular setting.

In Matobo Park we had opportunity to cycling around this park. The wildlife is poor but we had opportunity to see rhino and monkeys. We sleep on the camping site there and we were alone.
