The crackle of excitement in the morning air as you warm your hands on your cup of coffee when awaiting the safari vehicle to pull up, is a feeling that anyone who has been on safari will remember.

What will you see and hear today? The roar of lions? The sweetest springbok calves? Crows circling over a leopard kill? Anything can happen on Aquila’s 10,000 hectare private game reserve – you may even spot their name’s sake, Aquila, the ‘Black Eagle’, gliding in the sky above you.

Home to the Big 5 and many more beautiful animals, Aquila Private Game Reserve & Spa offers wildlife encounters only two hours from Cape Town, with the added bliss of a gorgeous world-class spa for a well-deserved pampering after a ‘bush massage’ (otherwise known as a game drive!).

For those who love a wild adventure, they offer Horseback and Quad Safaris, and for families, they allow children of all ages on game drives, a dedicated indoor and outdoor play area, plus family accommodation.

So whether you’d like to join Aquila for just the day, or overnight, they have a special deal to suit you, running until 30 July 2020, that allows you to book *anytime from 1 October 2020 until 15 December 2021.

Choose from their Day Safari, Couples or Family Overnight deals by heading to http://www.aquilaspecials.com/ where you’ll also be able to pay over four installments, allowing you to Save Now and Safari Later.
