All staff members have received training on preventative measures and hygiene protocols. Strict precautionary measures include sanitizing, masks and regular screenings that are compulsory for all staff and passengers.

Addo Elephant National Park is the third largest game reserve in the country and is sure to provide 5 big solutions to the lockdown blues. The park is not only popular for sightings of the majestic elephant but wildly renowned for being home to the Big 5 that includes elephant, rhino, buffalo, lion and leopard.

Favoured for its close proximity to Nelson Mandela Bay, Kragga Kamma Game Park is home to vast herds of African game, including White Rhino, Buffalo, Cheetah, Giraffe, Zebra, Nyala, Bontebok, Lechwe and many more species.
