Lalapa Safaris offers customized private tours as an add-on to your hunting safari. The beauty of a private tour is that you have your own guide with no overcrowding or unwelcome stops on your trip. Although we do have set a trip's itinerary these are purely there as a guideline and we will happily customize a safari to suite your schedule and individual needs. Our aim is to make your dream photographic safari a reality.

The Eastern Cape Wild Coast of South Africa offers peaceful, laid-back holidays away from the tourist hordes with enough footprint-free beaches, lazy lagoons, natural wonders and rocky headlands for everyone to enjoy. The Transkei is so far off the beaten tourist track that it has remained relatively untouched and unspoiled. The area has always been a firm favourite with anglers, offering excellent fishing grounds both at the coast and in the estuaries, particularly at the mouths of the larger rivers like the Kei (Kei Mouth) and Mzimvubu (Port St Johns) which are navigable for several kilometres upstream. Launching a ski boat for a day of deep-sea fishing is an exhilarating start to a wonderful day out at sea with magnificent views of the coast.
