This guided day excursion was an unforgettable experience and one of the highlights of our time in Cape Town. The drive from Cape Town to Aquila Private Game Reserve took us through stunning scenery. Our driver, Fuler from Ayamba Transport, made the journey even better by happily answering all our questions and sharing helpful insights along the way. He is also always in a good mood! The safari at Aquila Private Game Reserve was fantastic. The game drive lasted around a couple of hours and was led by a knowledgeable ranger who shared interesting information about the animals and the reserve. We were lucky enough to see several of the Big Five and get surprisingly close views, which made for great photos and a truly memorable wildlife experience. I definetly recommend the tour for anyone visiting Cape Town who wants to experience a safari but only has a limited amount of time!

This game reserve is a couple of hours from Cape Town proper but even though it's small, has great animals and up and close views! The hotel is beautiful and the breakfast and lunch was good.
Thank you we really appreciate your review.
