• Aquila Private Game Reserve - Start your day with a pickup from your central Cape Town hotel in an air-conditioned coach, traveling comfortably to the private and malaria-free Aquila Game Reserve located in the southern Karoo semi-desert region. Upon arrival at the reserve, meet your guide and game ranger, then board an open-air safari vehicle to commence your game drive. Discover how the ‘Big Five’ - African elephants, Cape buffaloes, lions, leopards, and rhinos - earned their nickname as you watch for them along with giraffes, hippos, and other wildlife. The Aquila Game Reserve is especially noted for its rich birdlife, partly due to a large wetland area. Over 170 bird species reside in the park, including the endangered ‘Aquila’ Black Eagle, from which the reserve derives its name. After your safari drive, return for an included lunch and then reunite with your host for the journey back to Cape Town.
