Welcome to Lalibela

relax…indulge…experience

Lalibela Game Reserve is located in the Eastern Cape, which means it is not only malaria free, but spans 5 ecosystems, resulting in a breath-taking diversity of flora and fauna in true African safari style. The 3 main aspects of any safari are the game-viewing, the accommodation and the food. At Lalibela we take special care to ensure that heartfelt service combines with these three “ingredients” to make your African safari experience a memorable one.

Lalibela Game Reserve consists of 7,500 hectares (approximately 18,500 acres) and is home to the Big 5 (lion, elephant, rhino, buffalo & leopard). Lalibela is unique in the Eastern Cape in that we have no public roads running through our property. All of the animals, including the predators, are free-roaming throughout the entire reserve.

We currently have 3 game lodges – Lentaba Lodge, Mark’s Camp and Tree Tops – all offering decor that is infused with the essence of Africa, as well as warm and friendly service and unforgettable game-viewing. Lalibela brings you the charm of authentic Africa and is a perfect blend of the formal and informal. At Lalibela, food is true safari cuisine with an emphasis on local specialties, ranging from centuries-old recipes to exciting contemporary African dishes.
