Grahamstown, Western Region, Eastern Cape

Travel to South Africa and experience a malaria free African safari vacation in the Eastern Cape. Lalibela Game Reserve’s location in the Eastern Cape means it is not only malaria free, but spans 5 ecosystems (valley bushveld, savannah grassland, fynbos, riverine forest and acacia woodland), resulting in a breath-taking diversity of plants, animals and birds.

Lalibela offers the ultimate Big 5 game viewing experience. This Big 5 private game reserve has three lodges, all offering décor that is infused with the essence of Africa, as well as warm and friendly service and unforgettable game viewing.

Accommodation: The three lodges, Lentaba Lodge, Mark’s Camp and Tree Tops are all built to the same standard, each with its own unique appeal. Each en suite unit has a private observation deck to make the most of the surrounding views. All the lodges boast a large lounge, viewing deck and a sunny swimming pool. Three family suites are available at one of the lodges as well as an exciting children’s programme.

Wildlife: Game drives in an open vehicle with an experienced game ranger bring you face to face with a multitude of game species, ranging from mighty elephant, lion, rhino and buffalo to tiny blue duiker and rock hyrax. Lalibela is also home to cheetah, hyena, hippo, giraffe, zebra, warthog and numerous species of antelope. Escorted bush walks open up the intriguing world of the smaller animals and plants found at Lalibela and offer an opportunity for bird watching. On thrilling night drive under the vast African sky, we search for the elusive bat-eared fox, aardvark, black-backed jackal, aardwolf and the curious spring hare.

Our rates include accommodation, all meals, all drinks and 2 game drives.
