History

The owner of Aquila, Searl Derman, is well-known for having vast knowledge of Cape and African wildlife. Derman felt there was a need for an affordable, authentic safari experience to be available to Cape Town locals and visitors. With this vision in mind, he opened the Aquila Private Game Reserve in 2001, naming it after the rare black eagle, or Aquila Verreauxii. The reserve is a four star, malaria free conservation area that has come to be one of Cape Town’s most notable attractions.
