Take 20,000 hectares (49,000 acres) of farmland. Restore it and restock it with African wildlife. Overlap it with six of South Africa’s seven biomes. Situate it in an area that is malaria free and within a two-hour drive of a major airport, miles of sun drenched coastline, and tourist attractions that will please even finicky adults and kids. Add the intrigue of frontier land and wars between Dutch farmers, English settles and Xhosa nation. The result? A small gem. Kwandwe or place of the blue crane in Xhosa is ideal for families in search of a wildlife safari that offers more than excellent birding and exceptional wildlife viewing.
