Aquila Day Safari

Escape Cape Town for the day and experience a Big 5 safari just two hours away. Aquila Private Game Reserve offers an exciting, family-friendly day trip with incredible wildlife sightings, traditional South African cuisine, and sweeping views of the Karoo landscape. Your day begins with a scenic drive through mountain passes and wine country before arriving at the reserve for a welcome drink and buffet breakfast.
The safari takes place in open 4×4 vehicles, led by experienced rangers who guide you through the reserve in search of lions, rhinos, elephants, buffalos, and more. Learn about the animals and the reserve’s conservation efforts as you explore the natural habitat. After your game drive, enjoy a buffet-style lunch before having some free time to relax by the pool or browse the African curio shop before returning to Cape Town.
Ideal for those who want the safari experience without an overnight stay, this is your chance to see South Africa’s wildlife up close — all in a single day.
