Top Port Elizabeth Audio Guides

Take a short game drive in Kragga Kamma Game Park. Although the reserve is on the smaller side compared to many African parks, there is no shortage of animals that can be seen and admired. Look for zebras, rhinos, buffaloes, rhinos, giraffes, and antelopes in the grasslands, and see cheetahs in a private enclosure.

This day trip takes you to a conservation park where you can view wildlife in its natural habitat—Addo Elephant National Park. Instead of booking your own transport, enjoy hassle-free round-trip transfers from all accommodations in Port Elizabeth. Admission is included for extra convenience, and once inside the grounds—look out for antelopes, buffaloes, elephants, lions, and zebras.

Even if you don't have the time to stay overnight in a game reserve, you can still see plentiful elephant, lion, rhino, and more. This small-group tour takes you to Addo Elephant National Park where you will embark on two game drives (morning and afternoon) to maximize your chances of spotting the Big 5.

The third-largest national park in South Africa, Addo Elephant National Park has one magnificent claim-to-fame: It’s the only park on the continent home to Africa’s Big 7. On a guided safari, your guide will take you to the most wildlife-rich spots, upping your odds at seeing some of the world’s most spectacular creatures. No need to spend a week—even short adventures offer chance encounters with elephants, rhinos, leopards, and more.

Port Elizabeth owes its existence to one major historical event: a decision by Britain’s House of Commons on 12 July 1819 to approve the expenditure of £50,000 on the Cape Emigration Scheme. This self-guided audio tour is about that emigration scheme and the establishment of a port and a community, who created a town with strong cultural links to the land of their birth. I’ll be showing you some of the more remarkable buildings and monuments that have sprung up over the past two centuries. Along the way, you’ll see historic stone churches and a 52-metre-high tower, the Campanile, built to mark the 100th anniversary of the settlers’ arrival. You’ll see a stately City Hall built alongside a market square where for almost 100 years ox-wagons would congregate to sell ivory, animal hides and wool. You’ll see elaborate architectural gems, including a library whose terra cotta façade was manufactured in Britain and shipped out to Port Elizabeth.

Learn about the biodiversity and unique ecosystem in Addo Elephant National Park on this fully guided tour from Port Elizabeth. Explore the only place in the world that hosts Africa's "Big 7": the Southern right whale, the great white shark, elephant, black rhino, leopard, lion, and buffalo with a guide's expertise to teach you everything you ever wanted to know about these animals.
