Overview
This malaria-free safariΒ in the Eastern Cape at Kariega Game Reserve can easily be added to a self-drive of the Garden Route, a short trip to the Cape or other destinations. We can also change the game lodge to anyone of your choosing.
Eastern Cape Safari at a Glance:
- Private road transfer from Gqeberha (Port Elizabeth) to River Lodge entrance gate where you are met and transferred onto your game lodge
- 3 Nights at Kariega River Lodge (Fully Inclusive)
- Return to Gqeberha (Port Elizabeth)
Why we love the Eastern Cape:
- Big 5 Reserve - see all the amazing animals with less crowds!
- Malaria-free safari experience: a big tick for families, first-timers or anyone who wants to focus on the safari rather than remembering to take your tablets (I know I do!).
- An easy add-on to the Garden Route - no need to trek to the Kruger!
- Beautiful landscapes with rivers, ravines and ridges
- Many Eastern Cape Reserves were former farmlands restored to wilderness. By travelling here you are supporting conservation, reforestation and rewilding efforts!
