Situated approximately 1½ hours from Port Elizabeth, Pumba Private Game Reserve covers more than 14,000 acres of land and offers the thrilling experience of spotting the Big Five in a natural environment. Pumba offers five of the seven local biomes, and is the first of the Eastern Cape game reserves to introduce a white lion breeding program. With a little luck you might encounter giraffe, zebra, hippo, cheetah, warthog, hyena, wild dogs and for bird-lovers there are more 300 different species of birds.
Upon arrival at the lodge, enjoy a welcome drink and meet your experienced game ranger; then set out for a 2½-hour game drive in an open vehicle. Afterwards, enjoy a buffet lunch at the Msenge Boma, before continuing your game drive as you travel back to the coach. Return to Port Elizabeth in the late afternoon.
Please note:
Not suitable for guests using a wheelchair or those with mobility limitations as getting into and out of the game vehicles can present a significant challenge. During the day, temperatures can get extremely hot. The game drive vehicle may not be covered. Wear comfortable walking shoes and breathable clothing; bring sunscreen, a sun hat and binoculars. Ride will be bumpy. Guests with back or neck problems are not allowed to participate. The roads in the game reserve are gravel; there are also inclines and certain parts of the game drive can be bumpy. Minimum age is 6 years. Participants are not permitted to use cellular phones during the game drives or to speak loudly or stand up on the game drive vehicles, as this will disturb the animals. Smoking is not permitted. Wildlife sightings are likely but are not guaranteed. Pumba Private Game Reserve’s curio shop does not accept foreign currency; you must have South African Rands to make a purchase.
