Observers of the holy month of Ramadan are invited to embrace the spirit of this period by visiting Aquila Safari with a variety of exceptional experiences – just under 2 hours from Cape Town. 

Aquila Safari welcomes children of all ages to its private game reserve on its game drives and it is ideal for families wanting to celebrate together. 

Having always embraced all cultures and religions from across the globe, the private game reserve hosts an onsite prayer facility equipped with basin and water-friendly services, prayer matts, the Quran, and seating for the elderly.

The Ramadan Safari Stays offer the opportunity to enjoy a serene and peaceful stay. Benefits include a delicious fast-breaking snack platter served to the room with dates, fruit, and a selection of savouries to be enjoyed as the sun sets over the dramatic mountains of the Southern Karoo.

After the last prayers when the sun has set over the reserve, the Iftar meal is made truly special with a variety of South African cuisine served in the main restaurant while the Karoo skies allow for magnificent moon sightings and star gazing.

After a night of comfortable accommodation, guests can rise before dawn to a continental breakfast Suhoor.

The reserve offers a variety of children’s activities and other wildlife experiences, such as traditional game drives, horseback rides and adrenalin rush quad bike excursions. The Olympic size outdoor pool can offer light exercise and relaxation, while the on-site Tranquila spa hosts an indoor heated pool and other luxurious facilities, services and treatments.
