Dates & Prices

Just a few hours from Cape Town, set on the Garden Route is the Southern Karoo and Aquila Game Reserve. Nestled on its 7,500 hectare conservancy, Aquila plays host to the Big Five spread across the hills and plains which are covered with wild flowers. Combine this with Cape Town and you have the perfect city and safari getaway - with no internal flying required.

Arrive in Cape Town where you spend 4 nights. We've included a half day city tour to get you acclimated and the rest of the time is free for your own exploration. Of course, we can always add sightseeing for you - like a day in the winelands or out to the Cape Peninsula - if you like.

Then a private road transfer takes you to Aquila Private Game Reserve for two nights so you can search for the Big Five and more. Fun optional quad biking and horseback safaris are also available at Aquila.

Just add your flights to and from Cape Town and you have an exciting week on South Africa's Western Cape!
