Gondwana Villas

Gondwana is an 11 000-hectare private game reserve set at the foot of the picturesque Langeberg and Outeniqua mountains.  A mere 45 minutes’ drive from George airport or a scenic 4.5-hour drive from Cape Town, it is the perfect African safari addition to your Garden Route travel itinerary. Gondwana’s Villas offer lodge luxuries in a setting of home-style comfort and privacy ideal for families and groups of friends. Each stylish thatch villa offers a spacious interior with three or four large en-suite bedrooms and expansive outdoor decks from which to enjoy spectacular views. Choose your ideal stay from B&B to full-board options. Lodge dining requires a 10km self-drive from the Bush Villas, whereas Fynbos Villas are situated adjacent to Kwena Lodge where guests can enjoy local fine dining, relishing African cuisine at the lodge restaurant, as well as experiencing a traditional South African barbecue.

Gondwana Game Reserve offers one of the best Garden Route safari experiences. Sunrise and sunset safari drives will take you through the beautiful African landscapes brimming with endemic flora and fauna. Expert rangers are incredibly passionate about the wildlife and its conservation and aim to give you the best experience on every 4×4 game drive. On this Garden Route safari, you will have the opportunity to spot the awe-inspiring Big 5 as well as eland, giraffe, hippo, cheetah, and zebra to name a few. The lodge also offers great adventure activities such as mountain biking and hiking. Gondwana also offers several other accommodation options as well as a Tented Eco Camp for those interested in the conservation of the reserve.
