Review of Schotia Safaris from Port Elizabeth, covering wildlife, transport, guides, rough roads, value, timing, and cruise-friendly planning.
“Mir ist klar, dass es in einem Reservat keine "normalen" Straßen gibt, dass es eben einfache Wege sind. Aber in diesem Reservat sind die Wege dermaßen stark ausgefahren, dass riesige Löcher und Fahrrillen entstanden sind. OK - das kommt vor. Aber wenn dann der Fahrer mit Vollgas in diese reinfährt, damit er auf der anderen Seite auch wieder rauskommt, dann passiert es leider mehrfach, dass es einen aus dem Sitz katapultiert und man mit dem Kopf gegen das Dach des Fahrzeuges knallt. Das hätte ich nun wirklich nicht gebraucht. Wir haben mit anderen Besuchern gesprochen, die die Safari in diesem Reservat über einen anderen Veranstalter gebucht hatten - die hatten…”

Review of Addo Elephant Park from Port Elizabeth, with safari sightings, lunch, transport, timing, value, and practical booking advice.
“Overall, a very nice excursion. We saw many elephants, zebras, warthogs, and even a buffalo. During the lunch break, we enjoyed a shared meal with freshly grilled food, which was great. However, our guide didn’t provide much explanation, and we drove through the park in a closed van, which slightly diminished the safari experience. Still, a worthwhile trip for wildlife enthusiasts.”
Review of Kragga Kamma Game Park’s 2-hour guided drive near Port Elizabeth, with animal sightings, costs, access tips, and honest drawbacks.
“We were advised by Viator that there would be taxis available dockside to take us to the game reserve. Very disappointed that this was not the case, and we were therefore unable to get to Kragga Kamma and so were unable to use the pre-paid voucher. We have previously had good experience with Viator, but feel badly let down on this occasion.”
