Amakhala Game Reserve is a stunning wildlife destination located in the Eastern Cape of South Africa. It is home to a wide variety of wildlife, including the Big Five, cheetah, giraffe, zebra, wildebeest, and more. Visitors can enjoy game drives, bush walks, and night drives, as well as a variety of other activities such as bird watching, fishing, and cultural tours. Bird watching in the reserve is exceptional with over 250 species recorded. The reserve also offers luxurious accommodation, making it the perfect destination for a safari.
Amakhala Game Reserve was voted by East Cape Tourism as the best Game Reserve in the Eastern Cape.
In Amakhala, the wildlife viewing is good all year. Since the climate is semi-arid, animals are always attracted to water sources – but marginally more so during the driest months of June through September. Nights become very cold at this time, making it essential to bring warm clothing for game drives in open vehicles.

Great service from Denise at Safari.com
Denise from Safari.com was extremely helpful. She responded promptly, provided good advice on safari lodgings options and worked up a couple of itinerary options to suit our budget. Denise also organised flights and transfers very quickly so that we could finalize our booking in a short time. Much appreciated.

Great advice, responsive and knowledgeable!
Pascal John at Safari.com guided me on different safari lodges (experience, rating), and most importantly knew about specials (buy 3 nights, get 4th for free) which allowed my family to secure a 5-star location at a more reasonable rate. Great advice, responsive and knowledgeable!
