Welcome to Pumba Game Reserve

The insider's travel guide to Pumba Game Reserve

Pumba Game Reserve, situated near the bustling city of Port Elizabeth, attracts more visitors than some of the region's more remote parks due to its accessibility to day guests who participate in the reserve's organised safaris.

Like other notable Eastern Cape reserves, Pumba is home to the Big Five, cheetah, hippo, over 300 bird species, and the rare white lion. A range of activities is available, including walking safaris, nocturnal game drives, specialist birding safaris, fishing, and archery. For those seeking relaxation, the reserve also features a spa.

Early accounts from 19th century explorers like Henry Morton Stanley and fiction writers like Joseph Conrad depicted Africa as uncivilised, mysterious and barbaric, reflecting the racist attitudes that underpinned European empire building.
