THE BIRTHPLACE OF CONSERVATION IN THE EASTERN CAPE
This 7 suite wildlife safari lodge and the new exclusive use Founders Railway Carriage permanently stationed on a hill on the reserve, located in the Eastern Cape, just one hour from Port Elizabeth, offers hospitality focused on tailored service. Founders offers an intimate safari experience with a flair of romance for couples, and an intimate social environment for families and friends travelling together. Founders Lodge is a celebration of essential beginnings in sustainable tourism, culture, conservation, and community inclusion. This lodge is a monument to conservation history, and it offers soul-reviving safaris in the place that pioneered private game reserves and eco-tourism in the Eastern Cape. Guests enjoy intimate nature-inspired experiences focused on the smaller lesser known wildlife and ecology, as well as big five viewing on 4×4 guided game drives on 25000ha of game reserve. Founders Lodge is a place built on meaningful memory, and offers visitors the special opportunity to learn how this once degraded land, was carefully nurtured and re-wilded.
