Luxury safari lodge in malaria-free Kariega
Settlers Drift is located in a remote part of Kariega Game Reserve; a private nature reserve of 10,000 hectares of unspoilt African wilderness on the Eastern Cape,where the entire Big 5 lives. The lodge overlooks the valley through which Bushman's River flows, providing spectacular views both from the main house and from the decks of the nine luxuriously decorated safari tents.
Walking safaris, game drives and river cruises
After an exciting day in the bush, it's wonderful to let all the impressions settle on the deck with a sundowner in hand, then slide on to the boma for a delicious candlelit meal around the roaring fire.
