Port Elizabeth Shore Udflugt: Addo Elephant Full Day Safari & "Braai" Frokost (BBQ)

It was a fantastic day! We were picked up at the pier by jeep and drove to ADDO National Park. We saw lots of animals, and our guide, Steve, was fantastic! The braai was fantastic! We would definitely book the tour again.

Fabulous helpful efficient staff from booking to the guide we had for the day. The lunch provided was a BBQ and it was amazing. Our ship brought its boarding time forward and this was accommodated

Comfortable & well run tour of Addo Park with a nice bbq lunch.. Timely pick up at ship, nice enclosed vehicle with high seating & good viewing which was important in the weather conditions. Lots of Elephabts and other animals. Plenty to eat at the bbq lunch.

Great trip..but hated the room overlooking the promenade. Configuration is very odd..difficult to move around and you have to keep drapes closed all the time so others do not invade your privacy.

Excellent tour with pickup from the cruise port; they waited patiently as disembarkation was delayed. Safari was fantastic and guide Mostaff was great, informing us about the park and ensuring we saw as many animals as possible. Many elephants, zebras, warthogs, cape buffalo, tortoise, hyena, dung beetles and the park's two male lions, and more. Braai lunch was excellent with lots of food, beer and wine. First safari for us and it was even better than we'd hoped.

My solo adventure at Addo Elephant Park exceeded all expectations, thanks to the outstanding guidance of Steven and the incredible hospitality of the team. From the moment I arrived, Steven made me feel welcome and ensured every detail of the safari was tailored to create a personal, enriching experience. Steven’s expertise truly shone as he navigated the park with precision, sharing captivating insights about elephants, lions, and even the smaller wonders of the bush. His ability to read animal behavior and adapt the tour to my interests—whether tracking a herd or pausing for quiet birdwatching—made me feel like a true explorer, even as a solo traveler. A highlight I can’t skip mentioning is the **BBQ lunch**! After a morning of thrilling sightings, we stopped at a scenic spot where a delicious spread awaited. The grilled meats, fresh salads, and local flavors were mouthwatering, and the team’s attention to detail (including dietary preferences!) made it feel like a gourmet bush feast. Dining alone? Not at all—Steven and the staff shared stories and laughter, turning the meal into a warm, communal experience. Steven’s passion for conservation added depth to the day. He balanced excitement with respect for the animals, and his stories about Addo’s ecological efforts left me inspired. By the end, I wasn’t just a visitor—I felt like part of the park’s mission. For solo travelers: Addo (and Steven!) is a dream. You’ll leave with unforgettable memories, a full stomach, and new friends. Thank you, Steven and team—this was perfection! --- This version emphasizes the solo-friendly atmosphere, Steven’s personalized approach, and the BBQ as a social highlight. Adjust as needed! 🐘🔥

Our guide Stephen was very kind and accommodating. He was full of information about South Africa and its wildlife. The 4x4 was clean, roomy, and allowed everyone great views of the animals. We saw many, many, elephants, zebras, and other animals. The Braai was FANTASTIC food, and elegantly served. One of our party is vegetarian, and they not only accommodated her diet too, but she said it was the best she’s had this trip. We had sooo much fun on this tour. I cannot recommend it enough!

We booked our trip from the cruise terminal in Port Elizabeth. Due to high winds our arrival was delayed by 75 minutes. We communicated with Clint at Addo Adventure who was fantastic. He advised us to just get there as soon as we could and our driver would be there. We also added two friends from the ship onto the tour the night before arrival. Our vehicle was a clean, proper Safari Vehicle with tall windows and everyone had a window seat. Steve our guide was excellent. He was extremely knowledgeable, a great communicator and very helpful. Not only did he guide us and drive us but he also made us Tea and Coffee late morning and grilled us a fabulous lunch in the park a little later. We appreciated that we did not have a 2 hour “sit down” lunch and were back out looking for the Big 5 as soon as we wanted to be. Overall superb day, well oiled and we took home wonderful memories and extraordinary pictures. Great job !! Dave

We were picked up at the cruise port for the half hour drive to the Addo Elephant Park. The group consisted of 8 people. Our guide was knowledgeable and fun. The lunch was delicious and more than we could eat. We took lots of pictures, with the vehicle turning around so both sides could get the best photo possible. What a memorable experience!

The diversity of wildlife was disappointing. 1600sqkm and only 5 lions in the entire park (a coincidence if you want to see them). Lots of elephants, some zebras and warthogs, few buffaloes and antelopes and no giraffes. The food was very good and the guide tried hard. Other parks offer more variety. Only elephant lovers get their money's worth.
