Buffalo Hills: A Garden Route Attraction for STO’s

Excellent STO rates coming off a base of very affordable rack rates make Buffalo Hills an attractive option for operators looking to offer an African Experience on the Cape’s Garden Route - because, for the owners of this 4-star lodge it’s about more than just the price. They’ve added real value by including dinner, bed and breakfast as well as Safari Game Drives, Guided Game Walks and tours of the Reserve’s Nyati jjj Distillery in all their rates.

Accommodation for 26 guests is offered in luxuriously appointed en-suite rooms or permanent safari tents (each with its own private spa bath with views of the Reserve’s indigenous forest) - and dinner is served around a traditional African Boma Fire.

Buffalo Hills also offers Guided Walks and Safari Game Drives to day visitors - and their Half-day Safari (07h30 to 13h30 and including a Guided Walk, traditional South African breakfast, a Safari Game Drive and a Distillery Tour and mampoer tasting) is a cost-effective attraction for itineraries in the Plettenberg Bay - Knysna area. New at Buffalo Hills this year is the Elephant Gorge Portered Trail with its 1-, 2- or 3-night packages designed for mountain bikers and walkers who want to experience the forests and fynbos of the Garden Route without having to carry a heavy pack. Rates for this Trail, like all offerings at Buffalo Hills, include walks, drives and Nyati jjj Distillery tours. Buffalo Hills features in a range of attractive packages created by the members of Active Garden Route. Visit them - and sample Nyati jjj Mampoer - on stand 1033 in the Cape Town & Western Cape Pavilion. www.buffalohills.co.za ENDS 281 Words
