Kariega Private Game Reserve is a proudly, family owned reserve and is home to the big five. Experienced game rangers will share their knowledge of the bush with you. You can expect to see elephant, lion, rhino, giraffe, zebra, warthog and a variety of antelope. The Kariega Game Reserve is located in a diverse landscape from rolling plains to bushy areas opening into open plains.
Each day begins with a morning safari as the sun brings the bush to life. During evening game drives you may be lucky enough to witness the thrill of a lion hunt, be surrounded by a herd of elephant, or watch as a family of hippo emerge from the water for a night of grazing. As nocturnal life begins to stir, return safely to the lodge for a hearty dinner.
Two beautiful rivers and access to the sea by boat from some lodges make this game lodge unique. Complement your safari experience with a boat cruise, guided bush walk, relaxing spa or take a canoe onto the river for a quiet paddle. In the evenings, sit back with a sundowner to simply enjoy the tranquil sights and sounds of bush life within this unique game reserve.
Access to the Kariega Lodges is possible with daily flights from Cape Town, Durban and Johannesburg to Port Elizabeth. It is an easy 1.5 hours drive to the reserve or you can sit back and enjoy a transfer. A stay at River Lodge is complementary to any Garden Route holiday or an add on to a long stay in Cape Town.
