We were docked at Cape Town for two days on a cruise ship in Feb 2024, and did Aquila on a day trip with Batende Tours. The park went above and beyond expectations and we can highly recommend it! We were given sparkly drinks when we arrived, and also a delicious buffet lunch with included soft drinks, and use of their big swimming pool before our safari. Our safari was nearly three hours and we saw many elephants (who ran beside our vehicle!), ostriches, zebras, rhino, hippos (in the lake so we just saw their noses peeking out), cape buffalos, Impala deer, giraffes and even a lion with three of his lionesses hardly a few feet away - incredible! in the middle of the safari we were treated to drinks and snacks. Their customer service is top-notch!!
