Addo Park Safaris - Schotia Private Game Reserve

Activity Description

BIG 5 WILDLIFE – Schotia Safaris is the oldest private game reserve in the Eastern Cape of South Africa, bordering the eastern side of Addo Elephant National Park.

Enjoy your Safari in South Africa on this malaria free reserve, which is probably the most densely stocked reserve in Africa, and with over 40 mammal species and approximately 2000 animals, can offer consistently good game viewing throughout the year.

Schotia was the first reserve in the Cape Province to have free roaming lions and we can almost guarantee sightings of these magnificent animals on every game drive.

Schotia is a private game reserve in the Eastern Cape of South Africa. We take our guests as close as possible to get the best viewing of rhino, hippo, giraffe and the king of the beasts, lion!
The Schotia Tooth & Claw Safari is a guided game drive in an open 4×4 safari vehicle with a short refreshments and toilet break at the halfway point. After an amazing experience, where you will view more animals than you thought possible, enjoy a delicious dinner which is prepared over an open fire.

We try to show our guests as much as possible on a drive and concentrate on the popular sightings rather than ‘the birds and the bees’. A short, spot lit night game drive providing the possibility of more nocturnal animals completes your experience as we return to our reception area.
