Gorah Elephant Camp, Addo Elephant National Park

Rowland Forbes

Gorah provides ultimate luxury in the African Bush where you can wake up to the sound of a lion’s roar

Gorah is part of the Hunter’s, Tsala group of Hotels. If you are looking for ultimate luxury, and a price that reflects this, then Gorah is the place for you. The location can’t be bettered. It is located inside the original park and that means that is near the middle of the enlarged Greater Addo National Park. There are 11-tented suites, which are the ultimate in luxury. These provide a very romantic setting and are fully equipped complete with sitting area, with views over the surrounding countryside, and a beautiful bathroom. The standard of cuisine is some of the highest in South Africa and is served in the old manor house overlooking a waterhole. You are quite likely to see an elephant or Cape Buffalo grazing around your tent. Accommodation is all inclusive of your meals, sundowner on your game drive and local beverages. Our clients have regarded their stay as a very special experience.

About Gorah’s Location

You will see a wealth of animals on your two 3 1/2 hour game drives a day, especially elephant. Addo boasts the densest elephant population on earth! This is a ‘Big Five’ reserve so you will see lion, cape buffalo, rhino as well as numerous antelope, giraffe, zebra and ostrich as well as the occasional and utterly charming meerkat. The rangers are very experienced and they will instruct you on the local medicinal plants and even get you crunch into a tasty termite! The sky at night is incredible and we will never forget seeing the moons of Jupiter through the ranger’s binoculars.  Sundowners will be provided on the game drive and few will forget the sight of a table being laid with a pristine table cloth in the bush! You can also ask about a bush walk guided by an experience ranger.
