Kwandwe Private Game Reserve lies in the heart of South Africa’s malaria-free Eastern Cape near Grahamstown. 20,000 hectares (49,000 acres) of farmland in the Great Fish River region were restored and restocked with African wildlife.
Today, thousands of animals including lion, black and white rhino, buffalo and elephant roam this diverse and fascinating reserve.
Experienced rangers and Xhosa trackers lead guests on interpretive, twice-daily game-drives in open 4x4 safari vehicles.
Guided bush walks and rhino tracking in Kwandwe’s pristine wilderness bring you face-to-face with wild Africa at its best.
There are 3 lodges on the Kwandwe Reserve, and each is unique in its character. As well as the game drives and bush walks, the rates are fully inclusive of all meals and local drinks.
You can read more about what you can expect from a safari lodge here.
