Guided Game Drives
Open-vehicle game viewing at sunrise and sunset
Sunset and sunrise game viewing drives in open Land Rovers provide the perfect opportunity to encounter some of Africa's incredible wildlife. Enjoy sightings of cheetah, white rhino, elephant, giraffe, lion, buffalo and an abundance of antelope species.
It's all about the wildlife at Garden Route Game Lodge, and your safari is the time when you get to spot some of our resident game. There are two safaris included per night spent at our game reserve. Departure is early morning and late afternoon, as this is when our wildlife are most active — in the heat of the day they tend to rest up.
Our qualified field guides are there to find the animals and interpret nature, allowing you to sit back, relax and enjoy. Expect your safari drive to last 2–3 hours depending on how much time is spent at each sighting. There will be a sundowner stop at one of our popular lookout points in the game reserve on your evening safari.
