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 so excited to share these beautiful pictures. We have two new elephant calves on the reserve and these close-up images were taken by ranger Daniel before they are even a week old.

My first sight of Thandi and Tembi was a very moving experience, knowing all this brave rhino mom has been through. Mix this in with a huge dollop of joy at seeing her healthy little one suckling greedily while ma grazed away calmly and you find your emotions on a real rollercoaster.

The Kariega Conservation Volunteer Programme is the ultimate South African Big 5 experience. Volunteers from across the world, get the opportunity to get hands-on involved in conservation management on the reserve. Here are the testimonials from the latest group of conservation enthusiasts.

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.

An Eastern Cape safari is sure to provide the thrills of the Big 5 without the risk of malaria. However, there are creepy crawlies that might try to follow you home.

Kariega is fortunate to be home to many healthy herds of zebra. Our guests are spoilt with scenes of these striking animals. They make for great photographic moments. Here are a few of our favourite zebra pictures from the last few months.
