Safari Feeling in a romantic HIDDEN GEM<\/h2>\n

We simply love Africa! The scenery, the people, the animals, the great wine and delicious food! And then there is this safari lodge that we visited on our South Africa trip<\/a>, it is a lodge that you will never forget! It was the last stop on our trip along the Garden Route.<\/p>\n

The family-run safari lodge with four tents is located adjacent to the Addo Elephant National Park in a remote corner of the Amakhala Game Reserve in the malaria-free Eastern Cape. Once used as farmland by the British settlers, the reserve was established in 1999 as a nature conservation area of about 7,000 hectares. Since then nature has been left to take its own course and many animal species that have been decimated by hunting, were also resettled.<\/p>\n

The descendants of the original Frontier settler families today run 9 independent lodges with lots of privacy and exclusivity. One of them is the extraordinary HillsNek Safari Camp, situated on the banks of the Bushman’s River.<\/p>\n

Amakhala is the Xhosa word meaning Aloe and these indigenous plants are found everywhere here.<\/p>\n

The lodge is situated about an hour from Port Elizabeth Airport. When you enter the reserve, you can park your car and will be picked up in a jeep.<\/p>\n
