Kwandwe Private Game Reserve, South Africa
Take 20,000 hectares of farmland. Restore it and restock it with wildlife. Overlap it with six biomes. Place it in an area that is malaria free and within a two-hour drive of a major airport, sun drenched coastline, and fun family attractions. Add the intrigue of a frontier land and wars between Dutch farmers, English settlers and Xhosa people. The result? A small gem. Kwandwe or place of the blue crane in Xhosa is an ideal safari destination for families that want more from their holiday that birding and wildlife viewing.
