Experience the unique atmosphere and endless wilderness of the African bush with like-minded people in a small group. On the first day, we will explore some of the famous sights of East London on our way to Addo Elephant Park. In the evening we will have a South African braai. This is a barbeque but carries an important cultural meaning for South Africans. For us, this means that we can’t miss a good braai. We will spend the full second day of the trip in Addo Elephant Park. It is the third-largest National Park in South Africa and has recently become the only park in the world that is home to Africa's “Big 7”: Buffalo, Lion, Elephant, Leopard and Rhinoceros, Great White Sharks and Southern Right Whales. On the third day, we will explore the Sundays River and you will have the opportunity to join a river cruise or do some sandboarding. Your guide will teach you Clicks from our native dialogue IsiXhosa.

    We drove around Addo for several hours observing animals.

    Tobz was a phenomenal guide and I enjoyed every moment of this trip with him. He is very enthusiastic and it’s obvious that he loves his job. He was very informative and provided an educational but also fun and entertaining trip. Amazing experience and would definitely recommend to everyone.

    Incredible guide

    Tobz was the best guide to have going through Addo. He’s been there so many times he knows exactly what to look for and can point out animals you never would’ve seen otherwise. He also wants you to have a good time and will try to do anything in his power to make you happy. 10/10 experience.

    Awesome

    Super fun experience. I got to see plenty of animals, and the history of the area was very interesting.

    Yeah

    Tobz was a great guide. He is super knowledgeable about the animals inside Addo and was able to tell us facts about them. He organized everything and made sure we go there on time. It was lots of fun!

    Addo Elephant Park multi-day Photo Safari: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Port Elizabeth.

    How much does Addo Elephant Park multi-day Photo Safari cost?

    +

    Prices start at $557 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Port Elizabeth usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Addo Elephant Park multi-day Photo Safari take?

    +

    Plan for about 72 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Port Elizabeth is not rushed.

    Is Addo Elephant Park multi-day Photo Safari worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 69 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 6 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Port Elizabeth, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Addo Elephant Park multi-day Photo Safari?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Addo Elephant Park multi-day Photo Safari suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 72-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Addo Elephant Park multi-day Photo Safari?

    +

    Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Port Elizabeth can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Port Elizabeth and add a light layer if any part of the 72-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Addo Elephant Park multi-day Photo Safari start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Port Elizabeth within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Port Elizabeth?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Port Elizabeth experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Addo Elephant Full Day Safari with a Traditional South African Braai (BBQ) Lunch, Addo Elephant National Park All Inclusive Full-Day Safari, Addo Elephant National Park from Port Elizabeth - FD01. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Port Elizabeth?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Port Elizabeth?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Addo Elephant Park multi-day Photo Safari?

    +

    Included: In-vehicle air conditioning. Not included: equipment used on activities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Addo Elephant Park multi-day Photo Safari include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 2 listed pickup locations in and around Port Elizabeth. Be ready about 15 minutes before the start time.

    What languages is Addo Elephant Park multi-day Photo Safari offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Addo Elephant Park multi-day Photo Safari?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is Addo Elephant Park multi-day Photo Safari wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Not recommended for pregnant travelers. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Addo Elephant Park multi-day Photo Safari if the weather is bad?

    +

    This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.
