My husband and I loved our March 2023 three-day stay at the Gondwana Private Game Reserve!
It offered a beautiful setting, excellent and unusual accommodations, good food, and a delightful staff. But, above all, we loved our memorable safari experience. Coolman was our guide/tracker/driver for six game drives and he was terrific – exuberant, consistently in good humor, knowledgeable, and informative. His uncanny ability to search out hard-to-find animals while skillfully driving us over rough terrain was a marvel. Among other highlights, Coolman was able to find and get us up close to a lion who was devouring a just-killed wildebeest, a rare sighting. Coolman was a real professional and not a clock-watcher. If he was on the track of an animal, he would extend the game drive beyond the allotted time rather than give up the quest.
We heartily recommend Gondwana and Coolman.
