The Aquila Game Reserve tour was a great adventure from start to finish. From the pickup and scenic two-hour drive, our guide David made us feel safe while keeping the journey fun and interactive. On arrival, we were welcomed with drinks and a calm, peaceful atmosphere surrounded by breathtaking scenery. The open safari drive was unforgettable—spotting wildlife up close in their natural habitat made every moment exciting. The landscapes were unreal, the experience felt like a true African safari escape, and the day was perfectly wrapped up with a delicious lunch at their beautiful restaurant. Kalaos Tours truly delivers a friendly, engaging, and top-quality experience. We’ll definitely be back again!

From the moment we left Cape Town, the Aquila Game Reserve Safari Day Tour was nothing short of spectacular. The drive was scenic and comfortable, setting the tone for an adventure that exceeded all expectations. Our guide, David Kalala, was the heart of the experience. His deep knowledge of the wildlife, the terrain, and the conservation efforts at Aquila brought every moment to life. David’s passion was contagious—he didn’t just point out animals, he told their stories. Whether it was spotting elephants in the distance or explaining the behavior of a lounging lion, he made sure we felt connected to the land and its inhabitants. The reserve itself is breathtaking, with wide open landscapes and a rich variety of animals. We saw rhinos, giraffes, zebras, and even the elusive hippo! The lunch was delicious, and the staff were warm and welcoming throughout. If you're considering a safari day tour from Cape Town, this is the one to book—and if you're lucky enough to get David Kalala as your guide, you're in for a truly memorable journey.
