On the banks of the Great Fish River- in the Eastern Cape region- the Kwandwe private game reserve is home to an abundance of wild animals- black and white rhinoceros- elephants- lions- buffalo- leopards- springboks- Cape buffalo- impalas and giraffes. The site- which was the scene of many battles between the first Boer settlers and the Xhosa tribes- lends its historic charm to four superb modern and private lodges. The reserve will also delight bird watchers who will be able to observe certain rare and protected species such as the martial Eagle or the Blue Crane. After enjoying a massage in your suite and going on safari in search of the big carnivores- it is also worth making the two-hour journey to visit the beaches of Port-Elizabeth.
