Lots of animals, plus a good guide
We were lucky enough to see a variety of animals in Addo, as well as the giraffes and ostriches in the private game reserve. Alan, our certified guide/driver is excellent. He’s knowledgeable, friendly and accommodating, and he knows the venues inside and out. Somehow he’s able to spot an animal way off in a field. We enjoyed the restaurant BBQ - more than enough food. Overall a full, satisfying day, definitely recommended.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much we appreciate your review!

A great day tour!
The Addo Elephant Park with Giraffe Walk is a fantastic tour. We saw heaps of animals, walked with giraffes and had a delicious lunch. Riaan, our guide, made sure that the day went perfectly, and was an expert in spotting animals. We highly recommend this tour, and Zasendle is a great tour operator.
Response from the operator: Thank you Timothy for the great review, we looking forward in seeing you back soon!

Addo elephant Park and giraffe walking day out
Our guide Alan was very professional and excellent guide for the whole day. We were driven around in a toyota hilux for 4 pax. for whole day. Great sightings in Addo elephant park, cape buffalo, springbock, warthogs, wildebeest, eland, hartebeest. Zebra, lots of elephants and special sighting of 2 huge male lions. We had a plentiful lunch at the restaurant then proceeded to the giraffes where we were able to get out of vehicle and walk closer to the giraffes.
Response from the operator: Thank you Virginia for your lovely review, we wish you all the best on your future travels.

Why this scores 71
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Full-Day Addo Elephant Park & Giraffe Walk: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Port Elizabeth.
How much does Full-Day Addo Elephant Park & Giraffe Walk cost?
+
Prices start at $1600 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 Full-Day Addo Elephant Park & Giraffe Walk take?
+
Plan for about 7 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 Full-Day Addo Elephant Park & Giraffe Walk worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 71 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 27 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 Full-Day Addo Elephant Park & Giraffe Walk?
+
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 Full-Day Addo Elephant Park & Giraffe Walk suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Full-Day Addo Elephant Park & Giraffe Walk?
+
Around 9 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 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Full-Day Addo Elephant Park & Giraffe Walk 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 Whale, Dolphin & Penguin Island Cruise, Addo Elephant Full Day Safari with a Traditional South African Braai (BBQ) Lunch, Addo Elephant National Park All Inclusive Full-Day Safari. 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.
