We plan and arrange a variety of day trips to places of interest when touring South Africa, for example;
ADDO ELEPHANT NATIONAL PARK
Situated 73km from Port Elizabeth, the conservation success story of this park is world famous. Since its proclamation in 1931, the last eleven elephants in that region have bred to number more than 200.
Its 11718 ha also offers sanctuary to Cape buffalo and 21 black rhino of the very scarce Kenyan sub-species.
Also notable is the unique flightless dung beetle, which is found almost exclusively in Addo.
Day sightings of animals are frequent and an illuminated waterhole provides excellent night-time viewing.
The elephants of Addo are however the main draw card for visitors to the park.
PORT ELIZABETH
Port Elizabeth is the largest city in the Eastern Cape and offers diverse leisure options from water-sports to township tours, from vibrant nightlife to nature trails.
There is plenty of exciting shopping and recreational opportunities.
Port Elizabeth is home to some of the best city beaches, restaurants, pubs, casino and entertainment centres, in South Africa.
Further places of interest include the Wezandla Craft Market, Oceanarium, a boat trip to St Croix Island for viewing of penguins and seals, as well as the Seaview Lion Park.
SHAMWARI
About 72 kilometres from Port Elizabeth, is the luxurious and privately owned Edwardian-style Shamwari Game reserve.
Beautifully appointed rustic décor and two renovated settler homes form the base camp for a reserve stocked with rhino, elephant and other big game.
OUDTSHOORN
Oudtshoorn has been called South Africa's tourism capitol, and with good reason.
The town has been blessed with the greatest variety of tourist attractions imaginable.
The ostrich show farms, the breathtaking Cango Caves sculpted by nature through the ages, with limestone formations in many natural colour's, a subterranean wonderland.
The highly successful Cheetah Breeding Farm, majestic mountain ranges, the unspoilt natural environment with spectacular waterfalls, culinary adventures and wine tasting.
One and a half hours’ drive inland from Port Elizabeth is the university town of Grahamstown, a charming cultural and academic centre also known as the ‘City of Saints’ on account of its 40 churches.
British-colonial in origin and once a frontier garrison, Grahamstown is best known as the venue for theatre and for Rhodes University, which has produced some of the country’s best writers, academics, journalists, actors and artists. The 1820 Settlers National Monument commemorates the town’s history and the Albany Museum houses African and settler artifacts.
The Cathedral of St Michael and St George, 1820 Settlers National Monument, Botanical Gardens, The Great Fish River Reserve, Thomas Baines Nature Reserve.
