A typical day spent at Aquila Private Game Reserve & Spa as an overnight guest will be spent heading out on a guided big 5-game drive, returning for a hearty breakfast buffet.
Guests are then invited to explore other experiences, such as spa treatments, Quad or Horseback Safaris, and signing kids up for the Junior Ranger Program. Then there’s lunch, with more time to enjoy their facilities, until the late afternoon game drive.
Guests then usually ready themselves for dinner, best finished off with drinks in the bar upstairs, nestled next to a fire.
Situated a mere 2 hours from Cape Town, Aquila is a Big 5 safari destination and spa that has been a traveller and local favourite for many years.
Aquila offers 6 room types, from basic, through to luxuriously appointed rooms that offer stunning views of the reserve.
You can even spot elephants, giraffes, buffalo and other wildlife from your room if you’re lucky! Also on offer are Quad and Horseback Safaris, plus Day Safaris mainly catering to travellers who only have a day to spare for a safari experience.
The reserve’s gorgeous Tranquila Spa boasts 10 treatment rooms, a sauna, a heated indoor pool and cold plunge pool, and a steam room which can be enjoyed by guests who have booked treatments from their extensive spa menu.
They currently have a Wild Winter Deal available, where the rate includes a 2-night safari for 2 adults, including meals and game drives. This can be booked exclusively online.
