Amakhala Game Reserve, Eastern Cape
Malaria-Free Safaris near Port Elizabeth and The Garden Route
The Amakhala Game Reserve began in 1999 as a joint conservation venture and today its independently owned lodges offer malaria-free safaris less than an hour drive from Port Elizabeth.
Steeped in history and beauty, this 7,000 hectare game reserve is an ideal environment for an unforgettable safari in a varied landscape, including breathtaking views of the Bushman's River.
Amakhala is also the first FTTSA (Fair Trade and Tourism South Africa) certified game reserve in the Eastern Cape.
Guests here can go on game drives in an open Land Rover in search of wildlife including rhino, elephant, cheetah, buffalo, giraffe, black wildebeest, zebra, and over 16 antelope species, or take a night drive with cheese and wine sundowners before searching for elusive nocturnal animals, or relax on a slow river cruise down the Bushman’s River; or even take a guided walk with one of the qualified rangers.
There are a choice of lodges on the Amakhala Reserve, ranging from traditional safari lodges to colonial homesteads.
All are owner managed by the descendants of the original families who arrived here with the British settlers of 1820. They all offer a fully inclusive rate, including all meals and 2 safari activies per day.
You can read more about what you can expect from a safari lodge here.
