Sample Itinerary
Approx. an hour and a half from Port Elizabeth starts your safari adventure! In this malaria-free “Big 5 game reserve” you will find not only wild animals, but also beautiful nature. In addition to offering morning or evening safaris in a 4×4 jeep, Kariega is unique in that you can also go on a hiking safari here – that way you get even closer to nature.
Here you can stand eye to eye with, for example, lions, elephants, zebras or giraffes – and here are also many beautiful birds and eagles.
If you want, take a river safari on the good ship Kariega Queen, which takes you down to the sea and the beach. Here you can enjoy the air and the atmosphere, maybe cycle a walk along the beach, visit the good beaches at Kenton-on-Sea, maybe take a long walk or ride a horse. You live in a nice suite close to the river, and can watch animals and birds from your own terrace.
You live in large rooms with high ceilings. Here is of course private bathroom with bath.
.
Cool down in the pool, enjoy the beautiful view.

Kariega Lodge is actively involved in responsible tourism, and is also the largest employer in the city of Kenton-on Sea. You work with local development and local responsibility. The Kariega Foundation is the sponsor of three schools: Farmfield School; Ekamvalesizwe School and Nompucuko School. Kariega believes that the future lies in the young and that education is the only real tool. The vision is to help these relatively poor school districts become places where young people can receive education, hope and pride. The Kariega Foundation receives its funds from donors, and it also receives help from volunteers from the hotel.
Kariega is also involved in the following projects – which you as a guest are welcome to participate in.
- The Leopard Project which is a partner project together with the Center for African Conservation Ecology of the Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University.
