Overview

About Gondwana Game Reserve — Safari from Cape Town

Wanderer does not own or operate Gondwana Game Reserve. Game drives, accommodation, meals and on-site activities are delivered by the reserve or the specialist safari operator, and inclusions, timing and pricing are confirmed at the time of booking.

Wildlife sightings are never guaranteed at any reserve. Every game drive depends on season, weather, animal movement and reserve conditions on the day. Wanderer helps set realistic expectations, compare options against your itinerary and coordinate private transfers where suitable.
