The Tuli Block consists of private game reserves and farm land. Originally set aside for Cecil Rhodes Cape to Cairo railway, problematic terrain and gold at Francistown saw the route changed and land given over to farming.

Rocky outcrops, pebble-strewn red landscapes and dry river valleys are bordered by forest of the Limpopo River. Impressive rocks, striking vegetation, abundant wildlife, prolific birdlife and rich archaeology make an attractive destination with excellent game viewing.

Lion, cheetah, large herds of elephant are regularly seen amongst great baobab and other impressive tree species. Night drives are likely to see porcupine, honey badger, leopard, aardwolf and exceptionally aardvark.

Solomon's Wall consists of impressive steep basalt cliffs - 30 metres high and 10 metres wide - that previously dammed the Motloutse River. The ancient lake has left behind a deposits of semi-precious stones. Rock art in the Lepokole Hills describes the last eastern refuge of the San people. Older archaeological discoveries include Stone Age tools, stone walls and ancient pottery.
