Addo Elephant National Park was proclaimed in 1931 to provide a safe haven for the few wild elephants who survived government-sponsored culling to remove them in the early 20th century. Today the elephants number in their hundreds, thanks to the efforts of the National Parks Board. Come take a safari in the park which is now home to the densest population of wild elephants on the planet and also boasts the Big Seven: elephant, rhino, lion, buffalo, leopard, southern right whale and great white shark.
On the first day of this exciting trip, we will pick you up in Port Eliza beth to transfer you to Schotia Safaris . After registration you will depart for the afternoon/evening Schotia Tooth & Claw safari and, experience some of the best game viewing the Eastern Cape can offer. Today you will get to view the many antelope, zebra, ostrich, Crocodile, Rhino, Giraffe and even the nocturnal animals such as lions & hippos. Then in the evening, relax over dinner and enjoy our delicious safari cuisine. Finally, after coffee around the fire, your ranger will take you for a short drive to your lodge where you will be lulled to sleep by the night sounds of the African bush.
