Gondwana Game Reserve
About Gondwana Game Reserve
Gondwana Game Reserve provides the perfect safari break for Cape Town visitors and residents. Located on South Africa’s Garden Route, 45 minutes from George Airport, the 11 000-hectare private, malaria-free game reserve offers a distinctive Big Five safari. Enjoy exhilarating game drives in a dramatic mountain and fynbos landscape, spotting free-roaming elephant, cheetah, eland, lion, hippo and many other species. Gondwana provides an array of activities including game drives, mountain biking, a fynbos conservation experience, fishing and the popular Junior Ranger program for children.
Lehele Lodge Villas are perfect for families and small groups wanting a private safari. Lehele Lodge Villas are remotely located for total privacy. The spacious 3- and 4-en-suite-bedroom villas feature double volume lounge and dining areas with a wood-burning fireplace, all opening onto a wraparound deck with magnificent valley and mountain views. Guests drive themselves to Lehele Lodge for meals and game drive departures.
Kwena Lodge is a modern and luxurious twist on the traditional Khoi-San dwelling. Lodge facilities include a large infinity pool, a chic open-plan lounge and bar, an elegant dining room set around two open fireplaces, a thatched outdoor dining area overlooking two waterholes, and an African boma. Fourteen double-volume suites have sky lights for star gazing, fireplaces, and deep baths for the ultimate relaxation. The Kwena Lodge Villas have 3 and 4 bedrooms and offer total privacy to groups and to families with children.
Gondwana offers a minimum 2-night stay at its Tented Eco Camp, accommodating guests in 7 en-suite tents. Guests opting for this option will get involved in wildlife and reserve management, in addition to enjoying safari drives and bush walks.
The reserve also offers a privately staffed exclusive-use lodge, the uber-luxury Ulubisi House. Ulubisi House is ideal for families, because it is situated in a protected-species area of the reserve where there are no dangerous predators. This lodge accommodates 6 adults or 4 adults and 4 children under the age of 12. A minimum 2-night stay applies here.
Children: All ages, except for Kwena Lodge which is 12+ years. Children under 6 years are not permitted on scheduled game drives. Children under 6 stay free of charge.
