It's very accessible from the N2 main national road between Grahamstown and Port Elizabeth Eastern Cape. The staff were all so friendly and welcoming. The Safari drives we got to see most of the animals available there. The Ranger was very insightful and knowledgeable about the animals. The establishment is breathtaking. Peaceful place with great adequate facilities. Each room had its own personal pool and Butler. It's great to see animals wandering around the lodge at a safe distance. Guest were friendly aswell. Great experience. To be repeated again some day.

We stayed for 4 nights which gave us bunch of great sightings. Sightings can really differ between days. Vegan food was great.

Our game driver Jono did a super job. very enthusiastic, very knowledgeable information given during the drives and he was fantastic at spotting the animals and very dedicated to making sure we saw as much and varied as possible.

A picture perfect camp on a fantastic game reserve. The camp was exactly as sold which is exactly what we wanted - rustic but homely and comfortable. You get multiple chances for drinks (alcoholic and non) and 3 meals a day which are very tasty. From start to finish we were made to feel welcome by the whole team who clearly love their jobs and are very passionate about conservation and all things nature. Our guides Lungi and Yohan were both incredibly knowledgable and friendly. Riaan’s bush walk was a particular highlight - what this man doesn’t know, isn’t worth knowing! We have all done safari before in different parts of Africa but all agreed this was the best experience we’ve ever had and will definitely look at coming back in the future.

We loved everything about the property. With only 3 suites it is very peaceful and personal, just what we were looking for. We were made to feel very special during our stay, from the moment we arrived with the short game drive from the car park to the little touches like the chocolates and Induli bracelets on our pillows and the hot chocolate with amarula after the game drive. The hot water bottles for the chilly morning game drives were another unexpected treat. We enjoyed getting to know the staff. Bulela was very knowledgeable about the animals and plants and we really enjoyed his company on the game drives. Thando looked after us very well, always there to greet us and refill our drinks. Elmarie’s food was delicious and we loved chatting to her when she came out of the kitchen. It was great to meet Matt & Anne, the owners and on one evening Matt shared a drink with us and told us all about their dream of Induli and how it came to be. We have been on several safaris and we loved this one the most. We can’t thanks the team enough for giving us such a special and memorable stay We will be back

From start to finish we adored our stay in Camp Acacia. Edwin was fantastic and watching the game on the drive in and out was like a mini safari! We had the most wonderful, peaceful and enjoyable stay there. It’s a slice of heaven.

The staff at Amakhala were very friendly and helpful.

The staff at Amakhala were very friendly and helpful. The food was excellent. the room was large and when you came back after the second safari they had turned the lights on. folded down the beds and put the heating on. That is a really great touch from the staff. The Park Rangers were very good. We had Jessie and he was very informative and had a great sense of humour. He really did his best to find the animals we all wanted to see and made it a special experience.

Amakhala Game Reserve is a haven for wild animals and a brilliant place for a safari. Many of the animals used to roam the land 100 years ago before the land was used for farming. In the early 2000's the land was returned to its natural habitat and the animals reintroduced, with the aim of conservation and breeding of endangered species. As it is in a malaria-free area, it is the perfect location for a safari for people who get bitten by mozzies! There were only a few jeeps out on drives at any time, so you rarely come across other people. There are several lodges in the reserve to choose as your base (we stayed at Safari Lodge, which was brilliant).

The whole experience was amazing. Difficult to put into words. Spectacular views from the lodge, very knowledgeable and professional rangers, great food, extremely friendly atmosphere, very thoughtful touches (like running a bubble bath on return from game drive), wonderful decor.

Beautiful place, well managed where the staff have massive respect for the animals and care for them, from a respectful distance. Not too many people out on the drives at once which is good as some reserves can get quite crowded - shows good management. Saw all the animals we could have hoped for and got to witness some amazing things, from a close but safe distance. Amazing. Relatively easy to get to too. It is a dirt road leading up to the lodge but easy to navigate even in a very small car which is what we had. Great experience.

A beautiful and well managed reserve.

A beautiful and well managed reserve. The landscape and different biomes are interesting to see and the wildlife are abundant. It is not crowded and made us like we where to only people there. Its clear to see that are leaders in conservation management and community engagement.

The entire Amakhala experience was magical.

The entire Amakhala experience was magical. Faultless from start to finish. I would suggest that Booking.com inform clients that lunch on the day of arrival is included. Also inform of the length of the drives…4 hrs and 3 hours. Water and cosy ponchos are provided. The attention to detail on this trip was excellent. The food and ambiance were top drawer. Although you can never tell which animals you’ll see, we saw a large number, including a close up lion, on our two drives and 1 night stay.
