Eastern Cape

As if South Africa weren't already diverse enough, the Eastern Cape adds deserts, snow-peaked mountains and golden coasts chock full of exotic seashells. The region is easily accessible from a quick connection to Port Elizabeth or an 8-hour drive from Cape Town.

Safaris and Private Game Lodges - The Eastern Cape is the ideal safari destination for families. The range of safari experiences is endless for families, and not all safari lodges are elaborate or expensive. You can choose either single day trips with a guide, or overnight lodge excursions in the bush at private game reserves. The private game reserve experience is one that is fantastic for families with small children. Members of the family can take advantage of continuous day and night drives (depending on the children's ages) with a private guide who will teach kids and adults fascinating facts about the animals and their habitat.
