We offer morning and an afternoon game drives in the reserve. The game drive usually takes about 2.5 to 3 hours depending on what we come across. Game drives leave at 9 AM and 2 PM, and starting point is the West Coast Padstal ensuring everyone can access easily and has a safe place to park. From there it is a 5 minute drive in your safari vehicle to the reserve gate. During your game drive, depending on your interests your guide will determine which route to take and what to look for, depending on weather and season, you may also get a chance to get out of the vehicle and join the guide in looking for tracks, unique plants or a better vantage point to wildlife. As we don’t have dangerous game on the reserve this is all safe. The game reserve is home to Giraffe, Zebra, Wildebeest, Impala, Spingbok, Eland, Kudu and Hartebees and a range of more elusive creatures to look out for, such as the Waterbuck, Steenbok, Porcupine and Caracal. On occasion we find tracks of Leopard will you be the lucky ones to see it? Our game drives are done in our open game driver viewer (Land Rover Defender), with a maximum of 9 passengers, ensuring that everyone has a front row seat and can hear our guide properly during the safari. A good safari is built on a good guide, all our guides are certified to ensure you get the best possible experience. Our standard game drives are on a shared basis you you might have other visitors with you on game drive. If you would prefer to have the vehicle to yourself, you can book the full vehicle as a private booking for 3500R.
