    Fun with Giraffes!

    Loads of fun and we were right next to the giraffes. Gillian was a great guide and told us a lot of interesting information.

    Especially

    Beautiful and exclusive tour and subsequent walk with 4 giraffes, we were lucky and were all alone with the tour guide, who was very dedicated and shared a lot of information.

    Unforgettable experience

    Incredible experience with our guide Kristoff walking with giraffes at Bellevue. We managed to get close enough to see these beautiful animals and felt 100% safe. Kristoff was so knowledgeable and reassuring while we observed them - including the largest male giraffe. We also saw warthogs, impalas, and 2 types of antelopes. An unforgettable afternoon

    Had a great time on the...

    Had a great time on the excursion. Only issue was we booked for 3.30pm and the reservation went in for 7:30 am. It was awkward when we arrived at our scheduled time and they didn’t have the reservation. Thankfully the guide worked it out for us and we were still able to go.

    Unforgettable experience

    After a short drive in the safari car we arrived in the grounds of the giraffes and saw the first ones from a distance, from there we continued on foot. After a short game, these extraordinary giants stood before us in their natural habitat - An unforgettable experience. In addition to this experience, I really liked our experienced guide, who told us a lot of interesting facts about the animals, but also about certain plants in the region, with practical examples. For example, there is a plant with whose branches you can brush your teeth, which was also used by natives. All in all a highly recommended experience.

    Giraffe Tracking 4x4 Safaris: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Giraffe Tracking 4x4 Safaris cost?

    +

    Prices start at $56 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 Giraffe Tracking 4x4 Safaris take?

    +

    Plan for about 2 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 Giraffe Tracking 4x4 Safaris worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 68 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 12 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 Giraffe Tracking 4x4 Safaris?

    +

    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 Giraffe Tracking 4x4 Safaris suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Giraffe Tracking 4x4 Safaris?

    +

    Around 4 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 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Giraffe Tracking 4x4 Safaris 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 Giraffe Tracking 4x4 Safaris?

    +

    Included: Bottled water; and Tea and coffee. Not included: Alcoholic beverages; Dinner; Lunch; and Carbonated beverages. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    What languages is Giraffe Tracking 4x4 Safaris 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 Giraffe Tracking 4x4 Safaris?

    +

    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.

    +

    What happens to Giraffe Tracking 4x4 Safaris if the weather is bad?
