Welcome to Garland

More than a safari.
A place to belong.

Out here, the pace begins to slow: first light reaches across the valley, boots settle into the trail, and stories linger as the fire burns low.

This is the Africa we call home. At Garland, Brendan and Shanna Moorcroft pair personal guiding with the warmth of family hospitality in South Africa’s Eastern Cape.
