Addo is a town in the Eastern Cape province of South Africa.

Traversing the region is the Sundays River, forming a fertile, grassy path through the Sundays River Valley. This area is one of the key production areas for citrus in South Africa The sheer biodiversity of flora and fauna is astounding.
With entrances to the park just 40 minutes from Port Elizabeth Airport in Nelson Mandela Bay, Addo is closer than you think, offering more than you could imagine: Big Five safaris, open-air adventures, natural attractions, warm Eastern Cape hospitality and much more.
