Kariega News

We were so pleased to receive lots of super images and a detailed review from German guests Petra and Frank after their visit to Kariega Game Reserve in May 2015. Thank you Petra and Frank and we are so glad that you enjoyed your safari and stay with us at Kariega Main Lodge.

The Kariega volunteers made a difference on Mandela Day by planting some trees at a nearby school.

Kariega Game Reserve was filled with the excited chatter of 26 youth from the outskirts of the Joe Slovo informal settlement in Cape Town over the weekend. The group visited with USA actor and film star Texas Battle and was fully sponsored by Kariega.

We were pleased to see this great write-up about Kariega in the South African travel news recently. Photo-journalist Jim Freeman recently revisited Kariega to check out Settlers Drift Lodge.

We are thrilled to announce that TripAdvisor, the world’s largest travel site, has awarded Kariega Game Reserve the prestigious certificate of excellence for the fifth year running.

We provide free access to Wi-Fi at all five lodges at Kariega Game Reserve. However, Wi-Fi is not available in the suites or chalets. Wi-Fi can only be accessed in the lodge and reception areas. This may come as a bit of a shock to those accustomed to access at all times! To help you prepare for time away from electronic devices we have compiled a list of 13 things to do without Wi-Fi while on safari at Kariega.

Beach trips are on offer for all River Lodge guests as part of their safari experience, Kariega is one of only a few Big 5 reserves in Africa where this is an option.
