Friendly guides give an awesome experience. Great value for the price, with a tour lasting 8 hours and includes a coffee/snack break and dinner with adult beverages. A must see for anyone visiting South Africa. Our guide Scott got us super close to the animals and was glad to answer all questions. Loved it!
What an amazing experience!! We were absolutely stunned how many animals you are able to see, and so close! Zane our Ranger took us along three game drives and shared his deep knowledge about ALL animals we saw, he also has a great sense of humor which made the safari even more entertaining. He also shared some more background on the country itself which was very interesting to hear as well. Make sure to book an overnight stay, the tented camps are a blast, a night we won’t forget anytime soon. If you are in the Addo area, make sure to visit Schotia!! Pro Tip: Make sure to visit Addo National Park first, do some self driving which is also amazing! Then add a day at Schotia to be even more impressed :
Awesome Game Drive with Roger Harrison as our very highly experienced Game Ranger - we got to view all the big 5 except leopard who are super difficult to track and we got as close as we ever have bearing safety rules and were able to get awesome photos and videos. A huge Thank You - Scotia and Roger you all rock! A game lodge to be experienced. Lots of added surprises included as part of this experience. Loved it very much!
“Small” private game reserve near Addo NP. Beautiful reserve, 3/5 of the Big Five seen here rhino’s are not black, we had a good guide and we’re lucky with the lioness and her 2 cubs. It is natural, predators feed themselves, so not a zoo look-and-feel. Lunch was fine and dinner too, with live music. If you have been here, you do not need to go to Addo. Do it the other way around, first Addo NP.
Thank you so much for this experience. Edward did a perfect job! We will come back for sure!Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedYes
Absolutely loved our experience with the safari. Shout-out to Roger who was so incredibly knowledgeable and really displayed his love for conservation of the animals. What a fantastic experience and highly recommend!Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedYes
Definitely a MUST DO - we had a great afternoon/evening tour with Scott who did an amazing job with explaining everything about the animals to us. The dinner was also super nice and more importantly we saw 4 out of the big 5 and a loot more like giraffes, zebras a hippo an so on.
Incredible experience! Special Thanks to our guide Scott he was absolutely amazing. You can see almost everything that the South African wildlife has to offer. The BBQ in the evening is also quite nice and if you ask in advance they can incorporate your diet needs. All in all 5/5! I already recommended it to friends.
Jenny, Peter and the team make sure that you will have the most wonderful safari experience in South Africa. From the reservation, organizing, information received until the good bye wave all is taken care of hands on and family run by a dedicated team. I travelled alone and my choice was the two nights combined Schotia Tooth & Claw Safari with a tour in Addo and the sea cruise. After I arrived at Schotia Headquarters, checked in my overnight luggage tea/coffee/ juice/water and cookies were served. I shared my safari vehicle with three visitors from overseas and our guide was Charl. He lives at Schotia and he has a vast knowledge of the area, the animals, the plants and vegetation, the people and the environment. It was a privilege for me to listen to his stories and ask him numerous questions. He made the game drives informative and fun. We left in an open safari vehicle and drove leisurely before stopping for a tea break at the lapa. We continued and were very fortunate to spot all the animals during those two drives. Back to the thatched roof lapa for a refreshing beverage while we connected with the other guests, team members and guides sitting around an open fire. Not long after we were called to pick up dinner plates and were served our food. Choices included lamb, chicken, potatoes, pumpkin, mixed vegetable, rice. The vegetarians and vegans were catered for as well. Last but definitely not least, the most iconic South African dessert, malva pudding is served with custard and you should not miss it. Afterwards it’s off to a night drive through the game reserve which ended with arriving at my lovely and cosy bush cottage. The lions were roaring during the night and it is very special to experience this live. I slept like a baby, images of elephants, hippo and giraffes dotting my dreams After an early morning tea at the patio watching the Moon with Venus and Pluto aligned in the sky followed by a stunning sunrise and listening to the different sounds of birds, I was picked up and after a short safari drive was driven to my car at Headquarters. From here I went to the harbour in Port Elizabeth for an Ocean Safari in Algoa Bay. Jenny organized for me to go with Raggy Charters, a marine eco tour company. Afterwards I headed back and stopped for lunch at Nanaga farmstall as recommended by Jenny. And just like that it was time for another game drive with Charl. After our coffee break he did show me an invader that only infects prickly pear cacti and ants that live inside the thorns of one of the acacia bushes and how they hollow it out. We saw a female lion on a hunt which went unsuccessful for her. The lucky warthog. The night drive after our delicious dinner was equally spectacular and it ended in front of my cottage. A short morning drive and I had to say goodbye to Charl. He drove me to headquarters where Justin was waiting for me for a safari in Addo Elephant park, also organized by Jenny. One can self-drive through Addo but I wanted a guided tour to give me the opportunity to take photographs of the animals. He drove me back to my car and I had to say goodbye to Schotia Safaris Private Game Reserve and the people. It is an enormous private reserve and the Bean Family and the staff members are in preserving and educating valuable wild life in South Africa in harmony with the neighbouring park, farms and settlements. Charl and the others are brilliant guides and I am convinced that everyone visiting Schotia Safaris Private Game Reserve will have the same experience. Thank you Schotia for an unforgettable experience.
Fantastic experience great facilities everyone was friendly and our guide was very informative.
