Lalibela Game Reserve

"The only man I envy is the man who has not yet been to Africa, for he has so much to look forward to"

We believe that this anonymous 19th century quotation expresses how special the continent of Africa is. The central ethos of Lalibela is to ensure that what visitors experience with us does justice to these sentiments.



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. The three 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 three 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.

Hi Herman and Reynardt. Thank you for making our bush experience so special. Your exceptional service was amazing and the knowledge of the bush was exception.

Reynardt and Herman – You guys rock. Thank you so very much for a wonderful time, we loved Lalibela and all of the staff. I don’t think we’ll ever forget the Elephants, lions, Hyena, etc.

Thank you thank you thank. Fire chats and game drives were the highlights of our vacation. We’ll see you in Canada. All of the very best and hope our paths will cross again.

Cheers.
