Animal Travel: Addo Elephant National Park

We love adventure travel, particularly when it involves wildlife. And for some good stuff right now Addo Elephant National Park in South Africa is the place to be because October is the start of the high season for guided game drives.

This ecologically diverse park on the Eastern Cape is home to 400 bird species as well as the big seven: elephants, rhinos, lions, buffaloes, leopards, whales and great white sharks. It's the perfect spot to head out on safari and see some beasts.

Sunrise guided game rides are perfect for hunting buffalo and spotting kudu, while afternoon jaunts prove a good chance for catching elephants, antelope, zebra, warthog and ostrich. Addo Elephant National Park also caters to those who prefer night to noon with sunset and evening drive options, too. Wild game fanatics can catch a glimpse of black rhino, buffalo, lions, springhares, genets and polecats.
