Experience the ultimate 2-Day Greater Addo Big 5 Safari from Port Elizabeth (Gqeberha). Explore the iconic Addo Elephant National Park, home to one of the world’s densest elephant populations, and enjoy thrilling wildlife encounters in both closed and open safari vehicles.
This all-inclusive adventure also features an unforgettable open-vehicle safari at Schotia Private Game Reserve, a magical sunset safari with bush dinner, and your choice of a giraffe or elephant walking safari.
Malaria-free, expertly guided, and seamlessly organized — the perfect Big 5 safari escape in the Eastern Cape.
Your safari begins with a convenient pickup in Port Elizabeth (Gqeberha) before travelling in comfort to Addo Elephant National Park, South Africa’s third-largest national park and home to over 600 African elephants. During your full-day guided safari in a high, closed vehicle, you’ll search for elephants, lions, buffalo, black rhinos, zebras, kudu, eland, and other antelope species. Your professional guide shares fascinating insights into elephant behaviour, Addo’s diverse ecosystems, and conservation efforts in South Africa. A picnic-style lunch is enjoyed at one of the park’s scenic rest camps.
Overnight stay in Addo area.
Begin the morning with your choice of a guided elephant or giraffe walking safari, offering an intimate opportunity to experience the African bush on foot. This immersive encounter allows you to learn about animal behaviour, tracking techniques, and the smaller details of nature often missed from a vehicle. After breakfast and some leisure time at your lodge, depart for Schotia Private Game Reserve for an exhilarating open-vehicle Big 5 safari.
At Schotia, one of the best malaria-free reserves in the Eastern Cape for close lion sightings, your ranger may take you off-road for thrilling encounters with lions, hippos, giraffes, buffalo, and various antelope species. The open safari vehicle ensures exceptional photography opportunities and a truly immersive wildlife experience. After an unforgettable afternoon in the bush, return to Port Elizabeth in the evening, bringing your 2-day safari adventure to a memorable close.
