Rachel Kolisi was living it up over the weekend with a well-deserved getaway to none other than her “favourite place on earth” — Botswana!

And nope, she wasn’t flying solo. Rachel brought along her adorable daughter Keziah, whom she shares with her ex-husband Siya Kolisi, for some quality mother-daughter time in the wild.

While the trip was all about unwinding and reconnecting, it also came with a bit of adventure. Thanks to an invite from @BeyondTravel, the duo got to experience the Wild Life Ranger program — a perfect mix of fun, nature, and learning.

Of course, Rachel didn’t leave her followers out of the loop. She jumped on Instagram to post a glimpse into their unforgettable weekend, sharing beautiful moments with Keziah and the amazing @BeyondTravel team.

In her caption, this is what Rachel had to say:

“Kez and I are spending the weekend in my favourite place on earth.

“@andbeyondtravel invited us to take part in their Wild Life Ranger challenge. This morning, I ran a very slow 10km due to some technical difficulties.

“Yesterday we were able to visit the And Beyond academy which is doing so much amazing work to up-skill/qualify people in many areas of hospitality, including becoming vehicle mechanics.

“If you feel moved to support the Ranger challenge, please do! I will pop the link in my stories. There will be match funding. Since inception, this challenge has supported over 11,500 field rangers across 24 African countries; protecting over 36 million hectares of irreplaceable land and seascapes. And they do this with limited support! We are heading to @andbeyondnxabega for a night,” she wrote.

Picture time!

Rachel followed up by sharing a series of photos from her weekend away, showcasing the beautiful memories she made and the special people she spent it with.
