Comfortable Transport and Fun At Aquila Reserve

Okapi Safari Tours did an amazing job of making sure this was a good experience for my wife and I. Driver picked us up directly from our place and made sure the journey was enjoyable. FYI-you will be responsible for your entry fee at the reserve which is approximately $150+ per person. The fee you pay here is strictly for transportation. Aquila Reserve its self was an experience like no other! Upon arrival you are greeted with wine and a cheerful staff. Please do not eat on the way there, because an amazing buffet is included as part of your trip. The tour of the reserve lasted about 3 magical hours and it was fantastic. Please bring your best camera for breath taking pictures!

Amazing Safari Experience at Aquila Private Game Reserve!I

Amazing Safari Experience at Aquila Private Game Reserve! I had an unforgettable experience at Aquila Private Game Reserve! From the moment we arrived, the staff was warm and welcoming, making sure we were comfortable and well taken care of. The game drive was the highlight of the trip—we got to see the Big Five up close, including lions, elephants, and rhinos. Our guide was very knowledgeable and made the tour both exciting and educational. The scenery was breathtaking, with vast open landscapes and beautiful wildlife all around. The lodge was also fantastic—great food, clean facilities, and a relaxing atmosphere. Whether you’re a local or a tourist, Aquila is a must-visit safari destination near Cape Town. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for an authentic wildlife experience!
