What started as a sanctuary for various antelope species has evolved into a thriving home to the Big 5: elephant, lion, buffalo, rhino, and leopard that roam freely on the reserve. Today, Aquila offers guests an unforgettable Big 5 safari that can be enjoyed as a day trip or an immersive overnight experience. Take the opportunity to visit us on your next trip to Cape Town and experience South Africa’s incredible wildlife up close.
