Day trips can be arranged for:​

• Most of our non-hunters go on a day trip to the Addo National Elephant Park & Schotia Game Reserve, a tour guide collects you at our lodge at +-9am. The day is started off with a game drive in Addo, which is only 40 minutes drive from our lodge. Addo was established in 1931 to save the Eastern Cape Elephant and Cape Buffalo from extinction. Addo is now over 250 000 acres and home to over 400 elephants and offers an unbeatable opportunity to view these amazing giants of Africa. Addo is also home to a large variety of birds (185 species), the black rhino, a numerous variety of buck species as well as the unique flightless dung beetle. After Addo, lunch is served at a nearby restaurant, and then the tour proceeds to Schotia Game Reserve about 15 minutes from Addo, here the Big 5 can be viewed in open vehicles on an afternoon & early evening game drive. A traditional supper is served around a bonfire in camp. The tour guide drops you off at our lodge at about 9 pm.
• Elephant Back Safari in the Addo Elephant Park.

• The historical town of Graaff-Reinet, 1.5 hours drive from the lodge, is situated in the middle of the Karoo Nature Reserve and was founded in 1786. You will find over 300 national monuments in Graaff-Reinet, which is more than you'll find in any other town in South Africa
• Enjoy a breathtaking part of The Garden Route, where you can see mountains, indigenous forests, deep gorges, the coastline of cliffs, and sandy beaches. You can also view ancient yellowwood trees, fynbos plants, and birdlife.
• Port Elizabeth is in Algoa Bay and every year whales are familiar sights along the coastline which is not to be missed, sightings include the Southern Right whale, which mates and calves between July and October each year in the sheltered Algoa Bay.
• The historic town of Grahamstown where the annual arts festival attracts a wide South African and international audience. This is the home of the Xhosa people whose culture and colourful beadwork are of great interest. Do a full-day tour of the battlefields where wars were fought between the 18th & 19th centuries between the British & Colonial forces and Xhosa warriors on the other.
• One of the biggest amusement parks in Port Elizabeth is the Boardwalk. Lots of fascinating sights to see, but the main one will probably be the casino. On the boardwalk, there is also a games room, shops, and restaurants. After sunset, the city transforms into a sea of lights and a variety of nightlife. Evening entertainment includes beachfront pubs and cocktail bars.
• Deep-Sea fishing - Apart from hunting, Blaauwkrantz Safaris offers deep-sea fishing for Yellowfin tuna. Fish between 10-85kg (20-200lbs) are the norm. There is also plenty of other game fish including Skipjack / Bonito, Dorado, and even Marlin. Fishing is done at a 30-40 miles drop-off, off the continental shelf. Heavy or light tackle can be used for fishing, the choice is yours. April - July are the months when these fish are around. For those who would like to do bottom fishing, surf fishing, bass fishing, or back-line trawling for Salmon and Garrick off an inflatable, is a light tackle challenge not to be missed.
• Limited bird hunting is available during certain times of the year.
