Nestled in the Zuurberg Mountains, Addo Elephant Back Safaris and Lodge is located just a short distance from Port Elizabeth and borders the Greater Addo Elephant National Park.
An exclusive malaria-free conservancy, it offers the ultimate getaway opportunity to both local and international travellers – from families, groups and corporates to nature lovers, honeymooners and local residents wanting a quick reprieve from home.
A mere 20-minutes flight or read transfer of of 1 hour 20 minutes from Port Elizabeth, and only 1 hour’s flying time from Plettenberg Bay, Addo Elephant Back Safaris and Lodge is readily accessible no matter what your preferred means of travel. The added convenience of our 1 200 m airstrip makes it possible for guests to fly in with family, friends or colleagues directly to the Lodge, ensuring more time there than getting there.
Our tented camp is perfectly designed to blend discreetly into its surrounding valley and bushveld environment; the remarkably spacious, sophisticated suites, some nestled in the yellowwood forest and others set on a hillside offering extraordinary views, are elevated on wooden decks each with outdoor spa bath. Luxuriously decorated to evoke Hemingway’s Africa of yesteryear, this is just the place to relax and re-energise against the tranquil backdrop of the African bush where giraffe, zebra, wildebeest and eland browse and graze at your doorstep. All meals of the day can be enjoyed at our open-sided restaurant, which incorporates a bar area and open-air boma, all overlooking the elephants’ much loved waterhole.
Walk with or ride the elephants through the diverse habitation,
a journey to remember, a safari guaranteed not to disappoint,
at one with nature, following in the footsteps of the ancients |
