Wildlife viewing can be good, with guaranteed viewing of elephant, often very close.
This is a beautiful park and the increased size includes some very scenic areas.
Parts of the park have good bush vibe, but it can be very busy at peak times.
Birding is good, with the a few biomes converging within the park, e.g. it is possible to see Cape, Red-eyed and Dark-capped Bulbuls in the park on the same day.

Addo Elephant park is a beautiful park that have a nice nature view plus a nice wildlife scene. When I been in the park I thought I will come and because it's called "Elephant park" I will see a lot of elephants but actually my all time there I saw only two Elephants, but I saw a massive amount of lions.

When we drove in the park in the beginning we didn't see much animals or birds but then after couple of kilometres we saw couple of cars gathering in one place, we got there slowly and what we saw was one of the most beautiful scenes I ever saw, A lion mom I guess and her two grown old cabs (In a size of grown male but acting young) Playing with each other like they practising a fight; Every couple of minuets also the mom joined them and rested. after about half an hour we kept driving and we saw another male lion alone walking and after another short drive another group of lions sitting beside a tree.

The weather in Addo was clear and the road is very comfortable to drive on your own without 4X4.

Maybe I didn't see a lot of Elephants like I thought I would see, but in less then one day I saw a lot of Lions.
