Tailor Made Holidays to Eastern Cape Safari

It’s home to the dramatic slopes of the Drakensberg peaks, countless world-class hiking trails and a coast so wild that the very fact became its namesake – there are many draws to the Eastern Cape, but not much will beat its main event. Here, it’s all about safari.

With such a diverse topography, this is a province that epitomises the essence of South Africa: vast and varied. But, it’s in the area’s game reserves that you will find the landscapes most recognisable as the African bush that has so often graced your screens. Dotted with majestic giraffe and grazing buffalo, the ‘Planet Earth’ worthy scenes will see you making your best attempt – however subconsciously – at a David Attenborough-esque voice over, even before you head out on a game drive. 

Rather than having to make the flight up to Kruger, the Eastern Cape’s private reserves are perfectly located for fitting in a safari at the end of your Garden Route travels – ideal for those trying to tick off South Africa’s highlights in a hurry. Plus, you’ll still see the sought-after Big Five AND there's no malaria. What’s not to love?

But remember: this is an experience where patience will pay off. So, cameras at the ready. You’re in for a treat.
