Just two hours drive from Cape Town you can experience the reality of a Big 5 Game Reserve. This means that you do not have to change accommodations to see the Big 5. ( Big 5 - Lion, Rhino, Elephant, Leopard, Buffalo) You have choices of day and overnight Safaris.
'Since the 4-star Aquila Private Game Reserve was founded, its ethos and that of our team of dedicated staff, has always been to educate guests on the importance of wildlife conservation, how it affects us all and what we as individuals can do to protect it and indeed the environment.
Aquila is not yet another luxury game reserve and lodge, its primary purpose is to offer an educational experience to all who visit in the hope that knowledge will enrich our understanding of the importance of living in harmony with Mother Nature.
Over the years, Aquila Private Game Reserve has gone to massive efforts and expense to source and re-introduce wildlife into the Cape region so that local residents and visitors alike can benefit from same and we are therefore proud to offer our visitors an opportunity to experience a Big 5 Safari.
