About this experience
Enjoy a safari tour in the oldest reserve in the Eastern Cape, Schotia Private Game Reserve. Schotia borders the east side of the Addo Elephant National Park. Schotia is home to Africa's ‘Big 5’ animals (elephant, rhinoceros, lion, buffalo, leopard) and features others such as giraffes, hippos, and crocodiles, in their natural habitat and is a must-see destination in the Eastern Cape. Join our qualified guides on a day safari and learn about the large variety of animals and the surrounding areas. Each drive is unique and unpredictable as the animals are constantly on the move. Our guides will, however, do their best to provide the best sightings possible. Tours take place in one of our open safari vehicles and snacks and drinks are provided on every tour.

Why this scores 65
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Schotia Game Reserve Tour with Port Pickup, Next to Addo Park: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Port Elizabeth.
How much does Schotia Game Reserve Tour with Port Pickup, Next to Addo Park cost?
+
Prices start at $246 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 Schotia Game Reserve Tour with Port Pickup, Next to Addo Park 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 Schotia Game Reserve Tour with Port Pickup, Next to Addo Park worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 21 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable outdoors in Port Elizabeth, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Schotia Game Reserve Tour with Port Pickup, Next to Addo Park?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Schotia Game Reserve Tour with Port Pickup, Next to Addo Park 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 Schotia Game Reserve Tour with Port Pickup, Next to Addo Park?
+
Around 7 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 Schotia Game Reserve Tour with Port Pickup, Next to Addo Park 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.
