WHAT YOU VISIT
Bellevue Forest Game Reserve
Set on a sprawling 2,500-hectares (6,177 acres) in the heart of Bellevue Forest Reserve, the family-run private reserve is not only known for its iconic African animals but its conservation of endangered flora and fauna, including the flightless African dung beetle and a wealth of bird and tree species. Upon arrival, you'll be greeted with a refreshing beverage and enjoy a comfort stop before meeting your ranger. Once in your 4x4 you'll set out to explore the reserve's diverse terrain. Throughout your three-hour excursion, your ranger will enrich the experience by sharing captivating stories about the resident wildlife, the intricate ecosystems, and the dedicated conservation efforts that safeguard this unique environment.
PHOTO OPPORTUNITIES
The reserve's golden savannah and towering acacia trees provides a picturesque backdrop to the legendary "Big Five"-lion, elephant, rhino, buffalo, and leopard. In addition, you may encounter graceful giraffe, lively herds of zebra and other iconic African wildlife.
LUNCH
After the excitement of the game drive, you'll return to the welcome center, where a sumptuous African safari-style buffet lunch with two drinks per person (house wine / local beer / soda / water) awaits. Served in a traditional boma, this relaxed setting provides an ideal atmosphere to unwind and exchange stories about your safari.
WHAT YOU SEE ALONG THE WAY
The approximate one-hour drive takes you through the city streets of Port Elizabeth and out into the verdant countryside.
