Overnight at Lalibela Reserve

This overnight safari takes place in the malaria-free Lalibela Big Five Game Reserve, only about an hour from Port Elizabeth. Indeed, the short transfer means more time in the bush and less on the road. Moreover, the reserve covers over 10,500 hectares of varied country.

Savannah, Grassland and Rolling Hills

The landscape here shifts between wide savannah, open grassland, dense bush and gentle hills, which supports an unusually broad range of species. On the game drives you have the chance to see the Big Five: lion, elephant, rhino, buffalo and leopard. Alongside them live giraffe, zebra, kudu and many antelope species. Above all, the evening and dawn drives are when the predators are most active, and only an overnight stay gives you both.
