Tranquility but the roads was not good at all. For non residents of Cape Town you should take into account that it is quite far from Cape Town centre and the price for Transport transfers are very high. Please do not try Aquila the price is relatively very very high and not worth it.

It did not match the description at all.
It did not match the description at all. The safari part and seeing the animals was good but everything else was poor.
It felt like being processed in a factory. A case of get them all in, and get them all out again! The accommodation was in dire need of refurbishment. The so called, outside rock face shower, wasn’t quite what I was expecting! Rusty shower head, filthy floor and full of mosquitoes. The buffet style full board had a variety of choices but all the food was tepid and shouted ‘food poisoning’ to me. Noisy, uninviting dining hall that looked like a school canteen. No ‘African safari’ atmosphere or decor here.
My advise is book for the day safari but not the overnight stay.

A good place to be away from it all.
A good place to be away from it all. Sufficient wifi for WhatsApp messages and even calling, but not for sending pics. Problem for me was that the google directions are wrong. Be sure to get the right ones and download them before you start your drive there. Car required. About 25 minutes drive to Aquila Game reserve. Very nice staff and excellent presentation of food. Wonderful pool.

We stayed at Aquila Game Reserve which was an amazing experience. Well worth travelling from Cape Town towards Touwsrivier if you are wanting a relaxing stay and a taste of a 'safari'. I did not go into the town of Touwsrivier, so can't actually comment on this.
